VIOLENCE AGAINST PREGNANT WOMEN:


ONE STEP CLOSER
by Amy Good

St. Catharine's Standard, November 18 2008


I wrote an article that was published on Sept 5th QUIT SPECULATING AND LOOK AT THE VALUE OF BILL C-484. The article was regarding Ken Epp's Bill to help protect pregnant women and their unborn children against acts of violence. After Harpers caucus pulled it's support of Bill C-484 I am very happy to hear that on Sat Nov 15th Resolution P-207 passed at the Conservative Policy Convention that was held in Winnipeg.


What this means is now it is policy for the Conservative Party to support bills that create a separate charge for the injury or death of an unborn child. As a young Canadian with many friends at that child bearing age (as well as myself), I am proud to say that we are moving closer to seeing laws to protect wanted unborn children.
