Huron -Bruce
The government uses your
money to kill over 100,000
babies through abortion each
year. Abortion hurts mothers
too. The death rate in the two
years following a pregnancy is twice as high for women who abort,
and abortion has also been linked to a steep increase in the risk of
breast cancer. The Christian Heritage Party supports giving women
comfort, counsel, aid and all information — everything they need
to let them know there are non -lethal solutions to an unplanned
pregnancy. Doesn't that make sense?
