Ontario pays for 19 abortions in the US at $17,382/abortion

Further to my previous post on Ontario's out of country abortion numbers of 2023-2024, I now have the cost of these abortions.

Ontario sent 19 women to the United States and OHIP pre-approved these abortions to the tune of $229,995US or about $327,608.28 Canadian. That is $12,205US or about $17,381.58 Canadian per abortion.

My guess is that because of the high cost of these abortions, and the fact that they were all done in the US, is that they are most probably third trimester abortions. See this:

'third‐trimester abortions cost much more: they range in cost from a few thousand dollars to over $25,000, depending on gestation and clinical complexity.'

 

Don't let the pro-abortions tell you that Canada isn't committing very late term/third trimester abortions. Because they do. In this case at least, we just did it in the United States. Oh. And those 19 out of country abortions? That's only from one province. How many are being done in the rest of Canada?

Why does the government fund far-right hate and not far-left hate?

Dear Minister of Diversity, Inclusion and Persons with Disabilities Kamal Khera,

Your department handed out $708,400 in 2020 and 2023 to the Anti-Hate Network. Public Safety gave them $200,000 this year.

I have a couple of questions I would like you to answer for me regarding the work that the anti-hate network is doing for this money.

1) In 2023, Statistics Canada reported a +260% increase in Catholic hate crimes in 2021. In the past couple of years there have been 112 cases of vandalization or burning of Catholic churches

https://www.catholicregister.org/item/34715-staggering-rise-in-anti-catholic-hate-in-canada

https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/daily-quotidien/230322/dq230322a-eng.htm

https://tnc.news/2024/09/30/a-map-of-every-church-burnt-or-vandalized-since-the-residential-school-announcements5/

Not only did your government not act or report on these hate crimes, neither did the Anti-Hate Network. Can you please explain this lack of action from the government, and from the organization that your government has given almost a million dollars to?

2) The Anti-Hate Network hasn't reported on the extreme hatred of the Oct 7 terrorist attack on Israel by the hate group Hamas? https://nationalpost.com/opinion/jonathan-kay-give-me-the-freedom-convoy-over-antisemitic-campus-lunatics-any-day

Why not?

3) The Anti-Hate Network is part of the Antifa movement https://nationalpost.com/opinion/jon-kays-legal-victory-exposes-canadian-anti-hate-networks-anti-conservative-agenda Regarding a case where the anti-hate network sued Barbara and Jon Kay:

https://x.com/jonkay/status/1590736287627378690?t=UEZ3KcpbeVBCl5lK_sIvXw&s=19

"The judge said that the statements made had the benefit of being true, noting that, “CAHN did in fact assist Antifa and that the movement has been violent,” and it would be reasonable to state that it is not a “good look” for a human rights organization to support a violent movement. Additionally, the judge concluded the defence of fair comment could apply, meaning the opinions expressed by the Kays could be reasonably drawn from the known facts and were not expressed out of malice. The judge noted that even “Warman’s evidence was that he and CAHN were part of the Antifa movement,” and its “muscular resistance” and “physical disruption” were known to two other board members."

Why is the Canadian government funding an organization that is involved with Antifa?

4) The anti-hate network only focuses on (what they call) 'far-right', or 'ultra-right' or 'extreme-right' organizations. Why are they not also focusing on far-left hate organizations?

5) Your own anti-racism strategy only talks about far-right organizations and not far-left organizations. Why does your government not care about 'far-left', or 'ultra-left' or 'extreme-left'  hatred? 

https://www.canada.ca/en/canadian-heritage/services/combatting-racism-discrimination/canada-anti-racism-strategy.html

I look forward to your answers to my questions.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Patricia Maloney

NOTE: I have no idea how Canadian Heritage's promotion of 'linguistic and cultural diversity', and 'arts and heritage sectors' and 'helping to share our stories and build a strong inclusive Canada' aligns with giving tax dollars to the Anti-Hate Network who aligns itself with Antifa, and doesn't care about Catholic hate crimes and burning churches.

Let's donate to pro-life groups

Imagine giving the pro-death Dying with Dignity a donation on Giving Tuesday? No I can't either. 

DWDC sent out an email looking for more money on Giving Tuesday. Today's email informed us that they actually received '$144,336, $50,000 of which will be matched, for a total of $194,336!' in donations. Who are the people that donate to this bunch anyway? It's pretty depressing I have to say.

Remember that DWDC's revenue in 2023 was $3,269,222, and they had $6,637,461 in long term investments. They put millions of donation dollars into long term investments, and then have the nerve to go out and fundraise for more donations to add to their lucrative death pot.

I think I can find an actual worthy organization or two, to give to on Giving Tuesday (or Thursday) that doesn't want to kill people as their reason for being. Today I did that.

(Note: DWDC emails are very cringe-worthy. Especially when you know their reason for being is advocating for euthanasia.)

Further to 2023/2024 Quebec abortions. Below is the breakdown by abortion code. I include the English translation in bold.

Quebec abortions performed in Quebec

Certains avortements rendus le même jour peuvent être rémunérés selon 2 codes d'acte différents, expliquant que le nombre d'avortements (distinct) peut être inférieur à la somme par code d'acte. * Valeurs inférieures aux règles de diffusion de l'information et de protection des renseignements personnels. - Some abortions performed on the same day may be paid for according to 2 different procedure codes, explaining that the number of abortions (distinct) may be less than the amount per procedure code. * Values ​​lower than the rules for dissemination of information and protection of personal information.

Quebec abortions performed in other provinces

Ontario sends women out of the country for abortions

Further to Ontario's 2023/2024 abortion numbers, Ontario also sent 19 women out of the country (OOC PA) in 2023/2024 to kill their unborn children.

Quebec Health reports 2023/2024 abortion numbers

Quebec abortions 2023/2024 = 21,133. They do not have the gestational ages of these abortions.

Quebec abortions done in other provinces 2023/2024 = 55

No abortions were reported in the United States.

These numbers are very close to what CIHI reported for Quebec for 2022 (the latest year available) = 21,589

Why aren't abortion clinics called out for misinformation?

This is a huge double standard. Pro-abortion organizations get away with misinformation by not being honest about what an abortion actually is. They are masters of double-speak.

So once again I wrote to Chrystia Freeland.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Minister Freeland,

My letter below was sent to you almost two years ago. I still have not received a reply from you.

There has been a lot in the news lately about Pregnancy Care Centres and how your government wants them to explicitly say they don't offer abortions and that they spread misinformation. 

I would like to know if you will also investigate pro-choice charities and their misinformation tactics? I have given you examples in my letter below and I can assure you that you will find many more examples if you cared to look for them. 

To single out just one type of charity for this aggressive treatment based on absolutely no evidence, especially since these charities receive virtually no government funding at all, appears to be quite an obvious double standard. In fact one would think that the pro-choice charities which do receive millions and millions of dollars in grant money should be scrutinized a lot more.

Surely you see the problem here Minister?

I look forward to hearing back from you soon. 

Sincerely,

Patricia Maloney 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Below I summarize the misinformation that I detailed in my first letter to Chrystia Freeland, a letter that she never answered. And now we learn that the pro-abortion attack dogs are wreaking their havoc on Pregnancy Care Centres because of alleged 'misinformation'. 

1) DE&E abortion. Pro-abortion description from Vancouver Island Women's Clinic: There is no actual description of the 'procedure'. The word 'procedure' is used 11 times, but what the 'procedure' is, is never explained. They use the word 'tissue' instead of fetus or preborn child or child in the womb. This is misinformation.

Here is an accurate description of a D&E abortion (ie 'procedure'). 'The doctor uses a speculum to open the woman's vagina, making her cervix visible. A tube is inserted into her uterus, by which all amniotic fluid is suctioned out. Using forceps, the fetus is then dismembered and extracted in pieces. After the extraction, suction and curettage ensure that the uterus is completely emptied. An ultrasound is commonly used to confirm that the abortion is complete.' (emphasis added)

2) CARE Program, BC Women's Hospital & Health Centre: Also uses the word 'procedure' and again the 'procedure' is never defined. They use the words 'contents of the uterus' instead of fetus or preborn child or child in the womb. This is misinformation.

3) Options for Sexual health: Again they use the word 'procedure' and 'contents of the uterus'. Ditto above.

Having a 'procedure' to remove 'tissue' is misinformation on a grand scale Chrystia Freeland. Please direct your witch hunt to where it rightly belongs.

Ontario abortions up by 2,793 from 2022

Ontario abortion numbers from the Ministry of Health and Long Term Care report 52,467 abortions in 2023. That's 2,793 more than OMHLTC reported in 2022. Every year the numbers go up.

Below are out of province Ontario abortions. There were also between 1 and 5 Ontario abortions done outside of Ontario and outside of the US.

I inquired about these 'WORLD REMAINDER' abortions. Here is the Ministry's response:

'A small number of other claims were billed by non-Ontario billing numbers and included in ‘IMSC-000024740 CHDB Abortions Services - Traveller's Component (FY23)’. These could (when billings exist) align with other provinces, the US, or other parts of the world. As far as I know, the world remainder is everything not Canada or the US. If you aren't seeing breakouts for the US or for a lot of provinces, it’s because there is no data to report from CHDB.'

Also notice that Quebec performs 71%+ of these out of province abortions. 

40 days for Life 2024 Ottawa

The prayer warriors have been out for the latest 40 days For Life.

Maureen and I went three times together, and many many others have been there as well.

It always feels so good to be able to go to the site and pray to end abortion. Mind you we are still chopped liver as we have to stay outside of the abortion bubble zone.

I was looking at the sign this time, and for the first time I noticed the irony of the name of the Ontario Safe Access to Abortion Services Act. There's nothing 'safe' about abortion for the child in the womb. And that is why we keep showing up.

Our Lady of the Cape pray for us. And for all children in the womb and for their mothers, that they will choose life.

Joyce Arthur: Justin Trudeau's closest advisor?

"Hon. Marci Ien (Minister for Women and Gender Equality and Youth, Lib.):  

    Mr. Speaker, our message is clear. The right to an abortion and access to abortion go hand in hand, yet there are a growing number of anti-choice pregnancy crisis centres that use deceptive tactics to deter women from making informed decisions and to make choices about their reproductive health. (emphasis added)

     That is why today I introduced a motion to require more transparency from these centres providing pregnancy counselling. Organizations that do not clearly or prominently provide this information to clients risk losing their charitable status. This is about holding them accountable. This is about supports on which women can rely."

I am tired of the untrue allegations and misinformation that pours out of Liberal mouths and pro-abortion advocates regarding crisis pregnancy centres. My many ATIPs show zero evidence to support these false allegations that Pregnancy Care Centres use 'deceptive tactics'. Joyce Arthur seems to be the source of this misinformation, as she writes obsessively and incessantly to politicians about her flavour of the month abortion causes, and Pregnancy Care Centres are at the top of her list. Her witch hunt against these centres started in 2010 when she received a $27,400 grant to write a horrific report slandering these centres that help women through crisis pregnancies. 

Arthur's fabrications have been rebutted time and time again by myself and by others, but she keeps repeating them. And Justin Trudeau and his pro-abortion MPs are more than happy to parrot Arthur.

Blind guides all of them.

Top 25 largest, wealthiest, worst pro-death groups in Canada

Compare and contrast pro-death charities with pro-life charities.

I looked at 25 pro-death Canadian charities. On average, they depend on government grants for 69% of their revenue. Their receipted donations ($3,880,807) only amount to 7% of their revenue. They received $39,239,005 in grants, or an average of $1,569,560 per charity.

I looked at 15 pro-life Canadian charities. Pro-life charities on average depend on government grants for only .33% of their revenue and depend on 65% of their income on receipted donations ($14,699,109). (Only three of the 15 actually received government funding.) They received a total of $73,558 in grants for those three charities.

(NOTE: all charities also receive revenue from Non-receipted donations, Gifts from other registered charities, and other revenue).

In other words, the pro-deathers probably wouldn't be in the death business at all, if they were not so heavily dependent on government grants. It is a very lucrative business to be in the killing business. Tax dollars literally flow into your income statement by the millions, thanks to Justin Trudeau and his support for abortion and MAID. And I'm not talking about the millions and millions used to do the actual killing part for abortions and MAID deaths. No, I am only talking about the government grants to those who promote/advocate/celebrate the killing.

Pro-death charities

Pro-life charities

Thanks to these very lucrative government grants, the pro-deathers push their killing agenda which also includes attacking pro-life charities. Kind of sickening isn't it?

Definition of a charity: "Your organization's purposes must fall within one or more of these categories

• advancement of education
• advancement of religion
• certain other purposes that benefit the community in a way the courts have said is charitable"

So where does killing people fit into those three categories?

Quebec has more late-term born-alive abortions than the rest of Canada

Andrea Mrozek writes about the recent study out of Quebec on born-alive abortions.

'The kicker for Canadians is that the study sample was 13,777 abortions done between 1989 and 2021 in Quebec. This means that over 32 years, about 430 abortions resulted in live births every single year in that province.'

These late term abortions also happen every year, in every other province in Canada. I have been collecting this data for many years from CIHI, but CIHI never reports on Quebec data. Now we know that there is an average of 430 of these late-term abortions in Quebec every year. This is a staggering number. It is also way higher than the number of late-term born-alive abortions in the rest of Canada (there were 131 in the rest of Canada in 2022/2023). 

Only 5.5% of these born alive abortions received palliative care.

'In analyses of live births, one-quarter of neonates (24.5%) were admitted to an intensive care unit and 5.5% received palliative care.'

Abort late-term baby. Abortion fails. Baby is born-alive. Don't give it palliative care. This is just plain evil.

Canada spends $6,496,076 on 'pride' in 2023

In 2023 Canada doled out $6,496,076 to the 'pride' ideology. That's a hefty increase to the previous three years when we spent $12,548,238 (for the three years during Covid 2020-2022 for an average of $4,182,746 a year. Also note that this money does not include the millions and millions spent on all things LGBTQ, but only 'pride' as in parades, festivals etc.)

I like this particular gem of $1.5 million given to Vancouver to combat 'the rise of hate':

'This 10-month project will address the rise of hate towards the 2SLGBTQIA+ community by supporting the Pride events teams and organizers across the country. This will be achieved through the redistribution of funds to pride events to increase their safety and security and the creation and implementation of training and resources on events safety available to Fierté Canada Pride’s network and beyond.'

Program name and purpose:

'Equality for Sex, Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity and Expression Program

The purpose of ESSOGIE program is to advance social, political and economic equality with respect to sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression. Advancement towards a greater understanding of the intersection of sex and gender with other identity factors that include race, national and ethnic origin, Indigenous origin or identity, age, sexual orientation, socio-economic condition, place of residence and disability are encouraged under the Program.'

Hiding government abortion spending

I think we can file this blog under the title misinformation. Or maybe sneaky. Or how about, we are spending your tax dollars on abortion and don't want you to find it where we publish all other government spending?

I have done a lot of research using the Grants and Contributions database for things like 'reproductive health', 'pride', 'LGBTQetc'. That's how I learn how our tax dollars are being spent on Justin Trudeau's favourite ideologies. 

Then there's this: Faculty of Medicine researchers have received $3.8 million from the Government of Canada to address barriers to abortion access for underserved populations. 

But when I went to look in the G&C database to see this funding, I couldn't find it listed. I tried numerous combinations of words, but no, the funding wouldn't show up. So I then contacted the program itself. They said:

"The research project you reference is funded by the Government of Canada’s Sexual and Reproductive Health Fund. You can learn more about the fund in the federal government’s news release for this funding. If you have any questions about the Sexual and Reproductive Health Fund, we recommend contacting the Government of Canada."

So down the rabbit hole I went, emailing the Minister of Health, the Deputy Minister, and others. Finally I got a response. I received two links: Initial Funding | Renewal of Funding to the G&C database. (I didn't even know about the second one). The first one is for $3,833,486 and the second one for $1,287,991 for a total of $5,121,477.

Now please take careful note of the description of this funding in the G&C database:

"Description: To support the federal government’s commitment to maintain a strong and effective publicly funded health care system through investments in emerging and demonstrated innovations in priority areas, such as palliative and end-of-life care, home and community care, mental health care and other federal, provincial-territorial and emerging priorities."

There is nothing about addressing barriers to abortion access for underserved populations. In fact, what has palliative care and end-of-life have to do with abortion access? No wonder I couldn't find the funding. 

So what other abortion funding is Justin Trudeau hiding in the G&C database?

There's no stopping Canada's euthanasia lobby

Another ATIP.

Dying with Dignity is in the business of promoting the killing of people through euthanasia. This is why they exist. In 2023 they joined with Dr. Anvita Dixit and Joyce Arthur to write a report Exploring the impact of belief-based denial of Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) on those seeking services: A multi-methods qualitative study in Canada. The study is focused on conscientious objection, which is a huge problem for those in the euthanasia business. If doctors are allowed to follow their consciences and or, not provide an effective referral to kill their patients, less people will be euthanized. 

This study received a $25,000 grant. Here is an excerpt of DWDC's letter to SSHRC explaining their participation in this study:

"We aim to establish foundational information about effects of “conscientious objection” that can serve as a baseline for other projects and future research. Our goal is to publish at least one peer-reviewed journal article on belief-based care denial of MAiD to motivate further research both in Canada and abroad to determine the extent of harms caused to patients by this practice. Further, we anticipate that the research undertaken as a part of this grant will inform DWDC’s evidence-based advocacy strategy dedicated to limiting or prohibiting belief-based care denial in general. This grant will further the understanding of “conscientious objection” from uOttawa’s and ARCCs current SSHRC-funded study on belief-based care denial of abortion and contraception." (emphasis added)

Imagine any sane person talking about the harms caused by conscientious objection?

Joyce Arthur's ARCC is even offering a $40 Amazon gift certificate for participants in the study. 

DWDC's Helen Long and Kelsey Goforth will devote their time on an in-kind basis of $12,500 to the study. DWDC will pay this in-kind donation; it will not come out of the pocket of Helen Long who earned between $200,000 and $249,000 in 2023.

The euthanasia business, just like the abortion business, is all about the money.

To know more about DWDC's agenda including euthanasia for mental illness, listen to Jonathon Van Maren's recent interview with Canada's expert on euthanasia, Alex Schadenberg.

Pro-abort gets tax dollars to promote reproductive justice

F.L. Jessica Ball from the University of Victoria wrote a paper with Joyce Arthur, and received $28,792 in government funding from SSHRC to do it: Abortion Attitudes and Access: Building A Canadian Framework for Reproductive Justice.

I couldn't find the report published on-line (why isn't it on-line?) but I did receive the report in an ATIP I did to SSHRC.

The pro-aborts want to progress from reproductive rights (mentioned 31 times in the report) to reproductive justice (mentioned 73 times in the report). Must be important.

A couple of key fabrications in the report.

• The author states three times in her tax-payer funded report, that there is a Charter right to abortion. There is no Charter right to abortion in Canada.
• The author states that Pierre Poilievre has been rated as pro-life by Arthur's ARCC. Pierre Poilievre has publicly stated he is pro-choice. Nope. Not pro-life.
• The author references a study by Laroche and Foster on pregnancy care centres in Ontario and their 'deceptive tactics'. This study was done in 2015 but the public can't see it unless they want to pay for it. In any case, since then there have been volumes written debunking this infamous pro-abortion myth.
• The author states "They [ARCC] is a charitable organization". No it isn't.
• This is interesting. According to the report: "The University of British Columbia’s Contraception and Abortion Research Team (CART) was awarded $3.8 million from the Government of Canada to develop resources for underserved populations seeking abortion and to establish a national training platform for healthcare professionals, focusing on destigmatized and contextually appropriate abortion care (University of British Columbia, 2023)." But the grants and contributions database does not report this funding. Why not?
• The author uses the phrase 'pregnant person' 15 times. Everyone knows that only women get pregnant.

I wonder if a pro-life researcher could receive $28,792 to write the report Why do the pro-aborts keep getting millions of dollars and we get zero dollars?

Joyce Arthur: lobbying, grants ($78,792) and brothels

It's common knowledge that Joyce Arthur advises the government on all things pro-abortion revealed through numerous ATIPs that I've done. (i.e. her lobbying to remove funding for summer jobs program for pro-life groups, her relentless attacks on Pregnancy Care Centres, which began with her $27,400 government grant to write a witch hunt of a report against pregnancy care centres, to name just two examples)

Here are a few other examples of her lobby efforts to government:

1) From this government document Family-centred maternity and newborn care: National guidelines, under a chapter on Loss and Grief, they actually refer to Arthur's Why women have abortions. The document is supposed to be about maternity and newborn care, and all of a sudden we're talking about why women have abortions. Why is the government referring to a pro-abortion document from Arthur when the government document is supposedly about family centred maternity and newborn care? 

2) Joyce Arthur's 2021 election spending of $9,984.00. Most of the money went to salaries for her and her pro-abortion friends. More pro-abortion lobbying during an election.

https://www.elections.ca/fin/oth/thi/advert/tp43/TP-0100_ecr.pdf

3) Next we have Joyce Arthur advocating for four brothels at the 2010 Olympics. I am not kidding. Thankfully saner heads prevailed when the Conservative government said that it was

"not in the business of legalizing brothels" 

and would not approve the initiative.

https://www.securitepublique.gc.ca/cnt/rsrcs/pblctns/wntr-gms-2010/index-en.aspx#s6a

4) Joyce Arthur the lobbyist: From here you can see that she received funding of $11,000 in 2023 from SSHRC. 

When I did an ATIP on this to Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC), I was told that

"Joyce Arthur did not receive funds from SSHRC. Joyce Arthur was listed as a collaborator on a Partnership Engage Grant (PEG) and a Knowledge Synthesis Grant (KSG)". 

But I was unable to find which grant she was collaborating on for this $11,000 amount. I'm waiting for a clarification from the ATIP office.

I did find three other SSHRC grants where Arthur was a collaborator or a partner. Notice that the first one is with Dying with Dignity the pro-death lobbying group.

1) Exploring the impact of belief-based denial of Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) on those seeking services: A multi-methods qualitative study in Canada (emphasis added).

2) Exploring the impact of belief-based denial of contraceptive or abortion care on those seeking services: A multi-methods qualitative study in Canada (emphasis added)

The pro-deathers are getting government grant money to target belief based (read Christian) non-acceptance of killing children in the womb and old sick people. I can tell you why Christians don't believe in killing people in one short sentence. You don't need $50,000 to figure it out. Just ask us: Killing people is wrong, evil, unethical and immoral.

3) Abortion Attitudes and Access: Building A Canadian Framework for Reproductive Justice 

What kind of stupidity is this? We have so much freaking 'reproductive justice' in this country with the pro-aborts already getting gazillions of dollars in government funding, plus fully funded free on-demand abortions, that now they just have to come up with new and ridiculous made-up reasons to get more tax-payer money to fund their pro-death ideology. Welcome to Canada.

CTV misleads Canadians on late-term born alive abortions

 "A popular, misleading claim about late-term abortions has made its way to the province."

This comes from the very first line of a CTV article about late-term abortions, live birth abortions in Alberta.

"That's just inflammatory propaganda that has no basis in fact," Joyce Arthur

These children are born alive after a failed abortion. Then they die. Not propaganda.

The only misleading item here is this CTV story. There's nothing misleading about these born alive abortions. They happen. Every year. In Canada. In every province. Not just Alberta.

I have done extensive research on these abortions and they are performed in all provinces. My research goes back to 2012. But the media refuses to believe it apparently.

The stats come from the Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI). CIHI took over the publishing of abortion stats from Statistics Canada years ago when they didn't want their name associated with underreported abortion numbers that they were forced to publish. 

These abortions happen. Former MP Maurice Vellacott contacted the RCMP years ago about them and the RCMP refused to investigate.

It's time to stop these horrific abortions. Wake up Canada.

Killing people is an incredibly rewarding experience

It's bad enough that Canada has one of the most permissive euthanasia laws in the world. But now we have the death providers telling us how killing people is rewarding. "Incredibly rewarding" even.

A long form article on Dr. Ellen Wiebe in the National Post recently has admitted to killing over 400 people through MAID. Alex Schadenberg, Executive Director, Euthanasia Prevention Coalition informs us that Dr. Wiebe giggles when talking about killing people.

"Elmira Tanatarova reported for the Daily Mail on May 15 that many of the viewers of the Better off Dead? documentary were uneasy with Wiebe as she giggled when discussing the number of her euthanasia deaths."

I then came across this study where the authors interviewed eight MAID doctors who clearly love what they do. For them, killing people embodied an "existential experience".

Some other quotes from the study.

"The act of providing MAiD fostered embodied feelings of conviction, courage, compassion, and intimacy". 

"Uplifting." 

"It doesn't upset me at all." 

"It’s like an adrenaline rush." 

“I hadn’t expected this”

“It’s amazing. It blows my mind still.” 

"It’s almost an adrenaline rush. And I was surprised at how good I felt. It was a little bit weird." 

"Participants’ feeling weird as they processed assisting someone to die may point to a realization of the sacred, powerful control of the fates they are encountering. And I was surprised at how good I felt. 

"it puts me in a good mood."

We have normalized euthanasia. And now we learn that doctors enjoy killing people. The majority of the participants in the study had no religious affiliation. This doesn't surprise me. Who needs God when you can be God?

Unredacted ATIP reveals abortion advocate's disinformation

It is interesting what gets hidden in an ATIP. Usually of course you have no idea what they are hiding because the hidden information is redacted. But recently I had occasion to ask for two different ATIPs about the Abortion Rights Coalition that were about a year apart. I received some duplicate information from them. The first one contained certain redacted information that the second one did not redact. 

The unredacted information revealed that the redacted info from the first ATIP, was ARCC telling their usual unrelenting falsehoods about pregnancy care centres.

This is the text that was redacted from the first ATIP from a letter from ARCC to the Minister of Health on April 4, 2018:

"...Further, it would help to dispel harmful myths about abortion and mitigate the effects of misinformation spread by anti-choice groups. Over 290 anti-choice groups exist across Canada, including about 165 “crisis pregnancy centres” (CPCs)....Most agencies have websites or do other public outreach, and all provide misinformation about abortion and work to reinforce stigma. Further, CPCs often mislead or scare women seeking abortion while advocacy groups seek to recriminalize abortion, which would violate women's charter rights."

Redacted information about CPCs

Unredacted information on CPCs

Two questions. 

1) Why was this information redacted from the first ATIP? The three Information Act clauses cited don't seem pertinent (19 (1), 20 (1) (c), 20 (1) (b.1)) to the redaction. And if they should have been redacted, why weren't they in the second ATIP?

2) Were the bureaucrats embarrassed (as they should be) when they saw this disinformation about pregnancy care centres, so they redacted "all [CPCs] provide misinformation about abortion and work to reinforce stigma"?

Here is another statement from meeting notes ARCC had with MP Don Davies from July 4, 2017 that was redacted from the first ATIP, but not the second ATIP:

"...The idea is to have a central, reliable place that women can go to, mitigating the effects of misinformation provided by "crisis pregnancy centres" and anti-choice groups."

More libelous nonsense.

(Here's a true statement no one can argue with, and is definitely not a lie: All abortion clinics kill babies.)

Fun Fact: My first ATIP took them 442 days to process and contained 11 pages. The second one took 396 days to process and contained 20 pages and produced similar information as the first. Don't let anyone ever tell you that ATIPs are ever processed in 30 days.

19 (1) Subject to subsection (2), the head of a government institution shall refuse to disclose any record requested under this Part that contains personal information.

• 20 (1) (c) information the disclosure of which could reasonably be expected to result in material financial loss or gain to, or could reasonably be expected to prejudice the competitive position of, a third party; or

• 20 (1) (b.1) information that is supplied in confidence to a government institution by a third party for the preparation, maintenance, testing or implementation by the government institution of emergency management plans within the meaning of section 2 of the Emergency Management Act and that concerns the vulnerability of the third party’s buildings or other structures, its networks or systems, including its computer or communications networks or systems, or the methods used to protect any of those buildings, structures, networks or systems

Constitutional rights for Christians

"A religiously affiliated health care facility's primary purpose is to provide health care. Religious beliefs should never interfere with a patient's health care choices; it is unconstitutional and compromises the patient's care when they are most vulnerable. We believe that a person should have access to all their end-of-life choices no matter where they access health care. Addressing this issue is long overdue, and it is incumbent on all of us to restore rights to patients, their loved ones and their clinicians." Helen Long, CEO, Dying With Dignity Canada

The pro-deathers at Dying with Dignity want their constitutional rights adhered to, yet refuse to acknowledge the constitutional rights (freedom of conscience and freedom of religion) of those who run Catholic hospitals. Talk about hypocrisy.

Participating in euthanizing another human being is against Catholic beliefs. For a Catholic doctor to euthanize a patient can put that doctor's eternal soul in grave danger. So no, Catholics do not want to kill people. The pro-deathers may not like these beliefs, but they are also guaranteed under our constitution.

If people ultimately decide to kill themselves, this is extremely tragic. But it is wrong to insist that others actively participate in that killing.

And now a word from our sponsor, Moses

Louisiana has become the first state to require that the Ten Commandments be displayed in every public school classroom

“If you want to respect the rule of law, you’ve got to start from the original lawgiver, which was Moses”

What a great idea. Instead of flying pride flags all over our Catholic schools, let's post the 10 commandments.

Dishing out grants to promote LGBTQ; protect boys from manosphere; to fight misogyny

Over $108 million in tax dollars was spent in 2022 on LGBTQ ideology.

In 2023 that number was $665,454,357. Definitely an improvement. But still $665,454,357 too much.

I'm not publishing 2024 grants as they haven't all been announced yet. 

Fun facts from Canada's grants and contributions database:

Misogyny: 7 records found $3,808,016 to fight misogyny

Misandry: 0 records found $0 to fight misandry

Manosphere: Les 3 sex* This so-called online-magazine is a charity and they received $433,103 "to target young boys who are vulnerable to the influence of messaging from the manosphere." 

You really can't make this stuff up.
