The Alliance, the co- ordinating body Tor the nation's pro-life groups, -also recom- mended that hospital therapeutic abortion com- mittees should be made subject to legal controls and sanctions to ensure that they implement the law responsibility. "Our most basic demaMlr"! the alliance brief said, "is for amendments to the law which will guarantee equal protection to the child conceived but .not yet born." The brief was en- titled: STOP THE KILLING: PROTECT CANADA'S UN! BORN CHILDREN. Because therapeutic abor- tions in Canada can be per - for Med if the pregnancy "endangers the health of' the mother", the alliance con- centrated its ,big'gest guns on the word "health". .The brief • saki the word was so vagile "many hospital abortion . committees have , abdicated their responsibility to ensure that abortions are performed only for serious medical, reasons. The 'non -definition of the word ."health" was con- sidered , "the most serious deficiency in the abortion law. "Consequently," the brief stated, "according to the senior staff obstetrician and gynaecologist at one large hospital, 'athreat to "health" has been 'taken to include "any unwanted pregnancy": The doctors at another hospital now no longer bother giving any reason for most of the abortions " they perform. - it The Alliance for Life also criticized the present law for prOviding no guarantee that hospital staff with con- scientious objections to abortions will not suffer discrimination in the place of employrnent. This is a serious source of anguish for nurses whose jobs it is to assemble the fetal parts after they have been dismembered in a suction abortion, to dispose_of the live fetus after a hysterotomy and to deliver the dead child after a saline abortion. Nurses who have asked, to be excused from these abhorrent tasks have' been denied promotion or removed from their position," the brief stated. Eleven of its 13 recom- mendations were directed "to deal constructively with the problem of unwanted or distressful pregnancies. The 11 main points .were: Counselling services should be created to assist pregnant women to find constructive help. 2. The Government 'should eliminate abortion counselling and referral from publicly -funded „family planning programs.' 3. The Government already publicizes mechanical and chemical methpds of birth control. It should also publicize the advances that have been made in the techniques of "natural" fertility control. - Education Program 4. Schools should be en- couraged tnprovide more. extensive education in pre- natal human life. The discoveries being made about the life and world of the unborn child ought to be incorporated into the primary and secondary school system programs and continuing education programs, as a respect for human life before birth. 5. There should be increased funding for research on the treatment of pre -natal as, well as post -natal congenital defeetsi,,,, 6.

The alliance Brief is part of a three . pronged attack on Parliament Hill . to strengthen the legal protection of the unborn. On Thursday, May 29, the Alliance plans to have 10 Liberal and Conservative • Members of Parliament - representing all Provinces - to d present the One Million Signatures in the House of ('nm mon This petition calls on Parliament • "to enact legislation providing the child conceived but not yet born the saine protection provided for any other person. The Petition also urges Parliament "to show leadership in fostering a life- sustaining society." The pro- life groups also plan a massive lobby. with MPs from each of the 265 federal ridings. "A strong' law against abortion will prevent many abortions and save many lives," the Alliance Brief notes. "To be sure, nO law will eliminate abortions coni- pletely, any more than other laws have eliminated child abuse, theft, tax evasion and a hest of other offences: Such laws are still useful, since by their ' educative effect they prevent what would otherwise' be an even greater incidence of the offences they prohibit.
