THE ABORTION ISSUE IN PARLIAMENT:

ABORTION DEBATE ALREADY RE-OPENED

by Amy Good

Langley Advance January 15, 2009

Dear Editor,

Your article [No abortion debate: MP, Jan. 6, Langley Advance] indicates that Langley MP Mark Warawa does not believe that now is the time to re-open the abortion debate in Canadian Parliament.

As a young adult in Canada, I would like to ask our MPs when a good time to open the abortion debate might be?

I have a funny feeling that, in a month, a year, or maybe even two years, the answer would be the same: "Now is not the time to re-open the abortion debate."

It is apparent that "the abortion debate" does not need to be re-opened; that already happened after awarding Henry Morgentaler with the Order of Canada.
