from the American Family Association's OneNewsNow:



Canada to honor abortionist
Charlie Butts - OneNewsNow - 7/10/2008 6:00:00 AM

Dr. Henry Morgentaler of Canada is receiving a distinguished citizen award -- recognition that is making pro-life groups unhappy because of the thousands of abortions he has performed.

Denise Mountenay of Canada Silent No More is appalled that Morgentaler would receive the award. She says Morgentaler has performed 100,000 abortions and has the largest abortion franchise in Canada. "...We're just very, very outraged and horrified that he would receive the Order of Canada, our highest (civilian) award," she says in disgust.

Mountenay finds it hard to fathom that one who survived Nazi concentration camps would want to kill unborn children. "(He) is a survivor of Dachau and Auschwitz, and then he came to Canada and began to break the laws to change the laws...," she continues. "...Sadly, in Canada we have no law, no restrictions on abortion whatsoever."

She also notes that the award Morgantaler will receive has to do with his contributions to health. But Mountenay points to research that shows abortions have a negative impact on a women's health.

"...Studies show that women who have abortions are six times more likely to try, or actually commit, suicide afterwards," Mountenay details. "Depression, mental illness escalates after an induced abortion. Forty-eight studies link premature birth subsequent to having an induced abortion. Twenty-eight studies link abortion to breast cancer and induced abortion," she points out.

Canada Silent No More has launched an online petition drive to convince Canadian officials to revoke Morgentaler's award.
