CANADIAN PRO-LIFE VICTORY

Campaign Life Coalition (CLC) is celebrating a significant legal victory after the Ontario Superior Court of Justice ruled on June 11 that the Parliamentary Protective Service (PPS) violated the Charter-protected freedom of expression rights of CLC and one of its members by prohibiting signs expressing opposition to abortion at a 2023 Parliament Hill event.

“This is an important victory not only for Campaign Life Coalition, but for every Canadian who believes Parliament Hill must remain a place where one can speak freely on the issues that matter most—in this case, the right to life,” said Jeff Gunnarson, National President of Campaign Life Coalition.

“The Court has confirmed that government officials cannot censor political expression simply because they find the message uncomfortable, difficult, or controversial. This is a big win for life and for free-speech rights. This ruling is especially important at a time when freedom of expression and pro-life advocacy are increasingly under pressure in Canada.”

The Court held that the PPS decision infringed section 2(b) of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and was not justified under section 1. The ruling rejected the use of broad and subjective standards to censor political expression on Parliament Hill. The judge found that abortion victim photography is not obscenity and does not promote hatred and that PPS was unreasonable to adopt a subjective standard.

The case arose from a May 2023 press conference organized by CLC ahead of the annual National March for Life. CLC planned to display signs depicting the victims of abortion at various stages of development. Before the press conference began, a PPS officer inspected the signs and prohibited their display, claiming they were too graphic to be shown on Parliament Hill.

“Abortion is not an abstract issue,” said CLC’s Maeve Gainey (then Roche) who was prevented from displaying the images. “It has real victims. The images PPS tried to censor due to a bad policy reveal the truth about what abortion does to preborn children. We do not display these images because they are pleasant. We display them because they are true.”

Gunnarson said that Parliament Hill has long been a place where Canadians gather to communicate political messages directly to lawmakers and to the public. “We are pleased that the Court recognized that constitutional freedoms cannot be restricted through subjective and unpredictable censorship.”

Campaign Life Coalition was represented by constitutional lawyer Hatim Kheir. The case was funded by the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms.

Only in Canada.

Perspective:

In Canada, you can go to jail for killing a Canada goose, but not for ending the life of your preborn child. 🤔

Pray for this country. Pray for a people who have lost sight of the value of innocent human life. 🙏

Pro-life voices: pay attention to this Psychology Today article.

It quietly admits what the pro-life movement has said for years: abortion wounds women.

Can you please help spread the word?

@AbbyJohnson @LilaGraceRose @RVHealing @DermotKearney3 @LifeNewsHQ @DrCalumMiller @MattWalshBlog @LiveActionNews

[Campaign Life Coalition @CampaignLife]

This is unexpected. Psychologists are now quietly admitting what the pro-life movement has known for decades: abortion harms women.

It turns out that post abortion trauma is real.

If you have had an abortion and desire forgiveness and healing, reach out to a place like Rachel's Vineyard.

A recent Psychology Today article unwittingly reveals the deep contradiction at the heart of today's abortion worldview.

Women are told they can end the life of their preborn child through abortion, remain “childfree by choice,” and then find a “sacred” space—free from stigma or judgment—to mourn the loss of the motherhood and child they rejected.

Psychotherapist Margo Lowy approvingly writes that women’s reproductive feelings are “not linear or logical,” that they may not make sense, and that “it doesn’t matter.” Instead of judgment, she says, we should “welcome contradiction.”

But what she is really acknowledging is something the pro-life movement has said for years: abortion wounds women.

The longing, grief, regret, and inner conflict many women experience after abortion are not merely “emotional weather” or a mysterious feature of the feminine psyche. They are signs of a real wound.

What should be one of the strongest human bonds—the loving relationship between mother and child—has been severely damaged.

That wound can manifest as depression, grief, emptiness, and feelings of unworthiness.

Some post-abortive women fall into destructive coping mechanisms, including substance abuse, promiscuity, or self-harm.

Abortion inflicts a real wound.

And real wounds need healing.

A woman cannot seek healing if she is told there is nothing to heal. She cannot find peace if her grief is treated as something to be merely accepted rather than honestly confronted.

This is why the pro-life movement has long supported post-abortion healing ministries such as Project Rachel and Rachel’s Vineyard. These programs offer women a path to forgiveness, healing, and peace.

They help women face the truth with compassion: abortion did not erase their motherhood. It wounded it.

But through repentance, mercy, and healing, that wound does not have to define them forever.

Should Ontario follow Alberta's lead by restricting euthanasia?

We certainly think so.

Under the leadership of Premier Danielle Smith, Alberta has passed legislation that:
➡️ Prohibit euthanasia for people suffering solely from mental illness, including depression, anxiety, eating disorders, addiction, and autism.
➡️ Protect the right of doctors to refuse participation in euthanasia.
➡️ Allow hospitals, hospices, and other health-care facilities to remain euthanasia-free.
➡️ Prohibits health-care professionals from initiating conversations about euthanasia with patients.
➡️ Goes even further by banning euthanasia for those who are not dying, prohibiting it for underage children, and restoring eligibility to terminally ill adults with a prognosis of 12 months or less.
Wouldn't you like to have the right to a doctor who refuses to kill? Wouldn't you like to know that the hospital or clinic you enter in your hour of need protects its patients from killing?

Ontario should adopt similar safeguards to protect vulnerable people, uphold conscience rights, and ensure that health care is focused on caring—not killing.

Read why we're calling on Ontario to follow Alberta's lead.

Canada in 2026: 🤔

A tree in Quebec can be recognized as a “living being” with “the right to life.”

But a preborn child — with a beating heart, unique DNA, growing organs, and a future — has no legal protection at all.

A tree is alive.

A child in the womb is even more alive.

If Canada can recognize the dignity of trees, it can recognize the humanity of its smallest children.

It's time to protect preborn children.

When you strip away the lies from the "pro-choice" movement, all you are left with is the gruesome reality that it champions the destruction of preborn babies.

[Campaign Life Coalition @CampaignLife]

Should killing an innocent human being ever be considered “safe" and "normal?"

B.C. pro-abortion group wants you to think so. It recently began promoting abortion on the exterior of city buses in Okanagan.

The group's message claims that abortion is "safe, normal, common” and tells mothers, “You know what is best for your body.”

But are these statements true🤔

Abortion isn't “safe” for the preborn babies. It intentionally inflicts lethal violence on them.

Abortion isn't “normal." It is against nature for a mother to end the life of her beautiful preborn child. Should k!lling babies at any stage ever be considered normal?

The only true statement is that, tragically, abortion is “common.” 102,705 abortions were reported in Canada in 2024. That’s 281 innocent human lives intentionally destroyed every day.

This human tragedy is nothing to boast about.

The ad also tells mothers ,“You know what is best for your body.” But what about the body of the preborn child living inside of her?

Intentionally k!lling a preborn child is never the answer.

[Pro-life Canadian Man @PeteBaklinski]

That the abortion pill is REVERSIBLE is one of the abortion industry's most hated truths.
It does everything in its power to hide this from women.

[Pro-life Canadian Man @PeteBaklinski]

The fall of Roe four years ago was the shot heard around the world.
It signaled the destruction of the diabolical idea that preborn humans could be slaughtered because of their location.
The fall of Roe was the beginning of the end of abortion.
There is still much work to do, but the end is now in sight.

[Campaign Life Coalition @CampaignLife]

Woah! A powerful tribute to the 60 preborn babies destroyed every day in Quebec by abortion.

[Pro-life Canadian Man @PeteBaklinski]

Pro-life advocates in Quebec honoured the 60 lives lost to abortion every day in the province.

Sixty people dressed in black walked in silence through Quebec City on June 20, each carrying the image of a child who could have been born, but was lost to abortion.

Each one became a powerful voice for those who have no voice.

The procession ended at the National Assembly, where they presented a petition asking the Government of Quebec to recognize the reality of post-abortion trauma.

The truth is, abortion has a face.

Every abortion takes from us a son, a daughter, a brother, a sister — a someone. It wounds mothers, fathers, families, and the whole nation.

People are only beginning to grasp the incalculable magnitude of this loss.

How many tax dollars is Ottawa spending to fund a program that trains doctors and nurse practitioners in how to euthanize the sick and elderly through MAiD?

Try more than $5 million.

Health Canada has funded the Canadian Association of MAiD Assessors and Providers (CAMAP) to develop and implement a national, fully accredited MAiD “curriculum.”

Documents uncovered by Patricia Maloney
@runwithlifepm also indicate taxpayer-funded support for MAiD workshops, guidance tools, honorariums, and a MAiD publication, The Canadian Journal of MAiD, which is already on Volume 2.

All to normalize killing as “care.”

This is madness.

[Pro-life Canadian Man @PeteBaklinski]

Abortion is violence against women.
Defending women and their rights necessarily means ending abortion.
Do you agree?
