A Message from

P.O. BOX 315. STRATFORD, ONTARIO, N5A 873
For the many who have contacted us
THE ISSUE
is HUMAN LIFE
THE CONCERN
is discrimination against helpless human beings be-
cause of 'place of residence' i.e. in the womb. Life is a
continuum which through its early stage (i.e. unborn
to adolescence) is dependent upon others for protec-
tion, nutrition, physical, mental and emotional devel-
opment.
THE EVIDENCE
is what begins at conception as human life with vast
potential (current medical knowledge) ends at abor-
tion as a dismembered body after repeated attempts
to avoid the instrument of death (documented ultra-
sound of a 12 week suction abortion - The Silent
Scream).
THE REQUEST
IS EQUAL RIGHTS TO LIFE
COMMUNICATE to the Federal Parliament and ask for
laws to protect the unborn given that human life begins at con-
ception.
URGE our legislators to be as humane as Emperor Hadrian
of ancient Rome. As Hadrian abolished the law that gage Ro-
man fathers the power of life and death over their children we
request abolition of these similar powers for Canadian mothers
and fathers over their unborn children.
