Are our doctors, Hospitals and health departrtient up to date? Are they doing everything possible, to make Canada a safe 'place to live in! I'h''I•know they can do a lot of new things like heart transplants also liver and kidney • transplants. And if your heart has stopped often they can make it tick again. But what about those 65,000 women and md,,gtiris In 1952 and the thousands and thousands after that had to get an abortion .because their.physical or mental health was in danger? Can't anything be done about that! Maybe they had some kind of a disease the doctors aren't telling us about? In my mother's time some 50 or more years ago our whole town consisted of 2,500 rural people. Mothers had from eight to 16 children - they were all delivered by a mid wife. There was hardly ever a complication. There was no doctor in the town. He had to come from eight miles away on his bike. Morgentaler seems to be very concerned about our poor unfortunate pregnant women. So much so that he publicly stated to have broken the law because it was necessary. 300 Dollars worth of concern per woman. Are the doctors agreeing with this? Are we in such poor condition that we can't deliver babies safely? Or do we perhaps have the disease of irresponsibility and ' selfishness. Are we so uninformed that we don't see what is going on? Don't we know? We either are very ignorant, or we live in a society that murders for the sake. of selfishness and convenience. A poorly informed girl or woman might be unaware of that little girl or boy within her by the time of an abortion. But the doctor knows and the attending nurse too because they have to make sure there are no parts left. How do they feel when -assembling that little body? .It is a scientific fact that by eight weeks a baby is completely formed. A doctor is sup- pose to know or else he is not up to date. If he then still does the abortion when the mother is not in real danger he then is guilty of murder, according to the law and surely in the moral sense. In Quebec they find that the population is now in danger and abortions are soon to become fewer. No wonder Morgentaler wants to find richer pastures. We are a people that want to be informed at all times. Why are we so dumb as to fall ° for him? Why don't we get information from that people that are really concerned about all these women and girls? They don't get paid for anything they do, except scorn and flack. You hear a lot nowadays about pro -choice people. But think of it? What choice? To kill or not to kill? We all have a choice, a respon- sible choice to get pregnant or not. There is a very safe way to prevent pregnancy. Ask for the Billings Method. Live up to it and no side effects. If for any reason you do get pregnant, it is no reason for murder. You will be surprised how much happiness it can bring to another couple if given up for adop- tion and to know you have loved enough rot to kill. Just Concerned ° Got an opinion?

Instead, she was mailing 3,000 signature cards to Prime Minister Brian Mulroney from people in Bornholm, St. Columban, Logan Township, Mitchell, Goderich and Zurich. The cards, signed in- dividually, were collected in a two hour period; one hour last Sunday and one hour this Sun- day; and read as follows: "The child in the womb is a human being who has a right to the protection of the law. I oppose the choice to kill." Across the country on Monday, a total of a million and a half of these cards were being mailed, with 42,000 of them coming from Huron; Bruce and Perth Counties.
