Stephen Harper said he would not re-open the debate on a woman’s right to choose.

But 24 hours from now, he’ll allow Conservative MP Stephen Woodworth to put forward a motion in the House of Commons which clearly opens the possibility of re-criminalizing abortion.

It’s up to you to make sure Canadian women and men know about it.

In 1988 the debate was settled when the Supreme Court ruled: “The decision whether or not to terminate a pregnancy is essentially a moral decision and in a free and democratic society, the conscience of the individual must be paramount to that of the state.”

They did a good job of keeping this quiet, we've got less than 24 hours to stand up for our reproductive rights. I truly believed that this would not happen here. It's time to show the MEN in politics WHY it does not happen here!

Now bear in mind that this debate isn't trying to make abortion illegal per say AT THIS TIME, but it will essentially attempt to re-define when life legally 'begins'. And THAT will re-open the abortion debate, you can be sure! We all know where this is heading! We can never stop fighting for the rights that we've won!
