The Alliance for Life, the national co-ordinating body for pro-life education groups in Canada l had its annual meeting in Vancouver, B.C. at the end of June. The meeting resulted in the elect- ion of the 1979-80 Board of Directors and the passing of a Position and Policy Paper dealing with several life issues. More than 75 delegates, representing Pro-Life Groups across Canada unanimously adopted the Position Paper, which— "Condemns all abortion (except that which occurs as a result of a life-saving medical treatment of the Mother) as a direct attack on the life of an unborn human being." The paper also expresses the alliance position on . sev- eral other issues including Newsprint shortage the latest medical experi- mentation called "In Vitro Fertilization or Test-Tube Baby." "Until the medical, ethical and moral aspects can be clarified, it would be much preferable to see research develop to correct all defects in the 'reproduction system, thereby allowing fertilization to take place in a natural The paper also expresses opposition to abortion- producing methods of birth- control including the I.U.D. and the so-called morning after pill. General counselling and screening probing the womb by such procedures as amni- ocentesis was noted as becoming more common and although the Alliance for Life recognizes the validity of such procedures in some instances, "It is completely opposed to their use as a justification,for abortion." The meeting was held in conjunction with "The Child in His World" a three-day seminar held at the Univer- sity of B.C. Campus, spon- sored by the Pro-Life Society of British Columbia. At the closing of the banquet on Saturday evening the Will- iam Kurelek Award was presented to Dr. Balfour Mount of Montreal in recog- nition of his years of service in the care of the dying. Wingham pro-life float won first prize in the Centen- nial parade of Wingham. A nation-wide walkathon will be held September 29. The Wingham pro-life group will walk on that, day. John Eakins, M.P.P. (Victorii-Haliburton) says"I understand that everyone is suffering a shortage of news- print at the moment, but because the amount required by the Ontario weeklies is so minimal relative to that supplied to the major U.S. buyers, I feel that a diversion of 1,500 tons of newsprint to the Ontario weekly news- papers is reasonable and necessary. These are small inde pendent papers which could face serious financial problems if their supply of newsprint is cut off. They have little or no inventory at the moment, while the major U.S. buyers still have about 20 days inventory on hand, even with the shortages. "I would w; k the major Ontario newsprint suppliers to reconsider their position and to make this realtively small additional amount of newsprint available to the Ontario weeklies. It could be crucial to their survival." The weekly newspapers in Ontario are facing a serious shortage of newsprint for at least the rest of this year. According to the Ontario Weekly Newspaper As- sociation an additional 1,500 tons is required over and above The amount the major newsprint suppliers have agreed to provide. If the major suppliers diverted a mere 11/2 days of production from their shipments to the U.S. the shortfall to Ontario weeklies could be averted. 0 0 . li n T a( tr Si P11 lel sl el a l Ji tt 1979 , DIRE BUSINESS CTORY • New Homes • Renovation. • Additions Box 298 General BRIAN CONSTRUCTION SANDERSON Brussels SANDERSON Contractor • •• Agricultural • Commercial • Framing 887-9200 • -..........i.... , David Mon-Fri. 87 COMPLETE Main 9 , OPTOMETRIST'S Prescriptions OPHTHAMOLOGIST'S longstaff Optician St., South, SEAFORTH Filled 5:30 p.m. Wednesday Saturday 9 - 12:00 OPTICAL 527-1303 Promptly SERVICE AND — Ltd Closed • .
