Some members of the group also reported having received positive comments on the film "Assignment Life" shown recently on CKNX-TV. Viewers com- mented on the film's 'ob- jectivity and effveness. Mrs. Campeau reported that since an amendment was added to the Criminal, Code in 1969 permitting abortion under certain restricted conditions, more than half a million abortions have been performed in Canada.

The Voice for Life plans to support this new group and remain in touch with it.
