Frank Kennedy Due to an aging population, Canadians should brace themselves for old age pensions at 70 and no more baby bonuses, a published think tank study reports.
No longer will Canadians be able to retire at 65 and lounge around the beach in Florida. Nor will there be any government funds for their children’s children’s baby bonuses, the C.D. Howe Institute predicts in a study released in Ottawa early in November.
In Canada, two out of ten people will be 65 or older ... (Continue reading)

Frank Kennedy James Brooks is on the job.
Mr. Brooks, a long-time Campaign Life Coalition supporter spotted an ad in Time magazine ( November 11,1991).
It made his blood boil.
At first glance, Mr. Brooks thought it was an ad for Eaton’s department store. Actually it was an ad for Andrew Fezza, a manufacturer of high quality men’s clothing. With quality clients like Holt Renfrew and Eaton’s, Andrew Fezza markets expensive men’s pure woolen sweaters and jackets under the Assets label
Male customer
Superimposed on the ad ... (Continue reading)

Frank Kennedy My assignment from Campaign Life Coalition President Jim Hughes was simple. Go to Port Charlotte, he said, and close down every abortion “clinic” down there.
And he gave me two weeks to do it.
The good news is that Port Charlotte is in Florida! I told Jim that I wouldn’t be very effective going alone.
He agreed.
So I brought along my wife, Ileen, daughter Tara, 21, and son, Rory, 19. In order to economize, we drove.
We left Toronto on December 21. We were ... (Continue reading)

Frank Kennedy A radical review of the Canadian Constitution in the offing could be seized as a chance to destroy the publicly-supported Catholic school system in all of Canada.
This is what Tom Reilly, the Superintendent of Education of Dufferin-Peel RC Separate School Board, fears to some extent, as expressed in a letter dated September 19, 1991, to Donald Clune, the Chairman of the Metropolitan (Toronto) Separate School Board (MSSB).
Reilly notes that Quebec is now officially against denominational schools (it has both Protestant ... (Continue reading)
The Ontario NDP government has presented a bill that angers both pro-lifers and the pro-abortionists.
Let’s not stop there. It angers a coalition of twelve churches (including Anglicans, Catholics, Baptists and Mennonites). It angers Jewish rabbis. It also angers a host of social workers and previously non-regulated people such as naturopaths and other private counseling groups.
The new legislation includes Bill 43, The Regulated Health Professionals Act (the Professions Act); Bill 55, An Act respecting the regulation of the Profession of Medicine ... (Continue reading)

Frank Kennedy On October 31, 1991 (Halowe’en), Dawn Black (NDP, New Westminster-Burnaby, B.C.) introduced a Private Member’s Bill in the House of Commons in favour of funding for birth control.
Pro-lifers have been saying for years that the contraceptive mentality increases rather than decreases abortions and the dissolution of the family, but feminists and others won’t listen.
Dawn Black’s bill proposed to reinstate a Family Planning division in the Department of Health and Welfare, restore full funding for Planned Parenthood, establish a national clearing ... (Continue reading)

Phoenix
Michelle, a pleasant, quiet girl with a pretty face, lives in Phoenix, Arizona.

The Ontario NDP now finds itself on the side of the angels in its support for a common day of rest for all Ontario residents. The villains are both the Liberal and the Tories who have now caved into the wishes of the big retailers who want wide-open Sundays.
Quagmire
But it is unlikely that the new Bill 115, which was to establish a ‘common pause day’ by regulating Sunday shopping will find its way through the legislative quagmire ... (Continue reading)

What a beautiful chance the Knights of Columbus in Stratford, Ontario had to show Premier Bob Rae recently what they thought of him, and his pro-abortion policies.
But they muffed it.
The Knights of Columbus, a large international Catholic men’s organization established over a hundred years ago, have recently had an identity crisis.
In the United States they have failed to kick out openly pro-abortion legislators on the grounds that they “don’t want to be holier than the church.”
Screened
When I joined the Knights ... (Continue reading)

Frank M. Kennedy Ontario Citizenship Minister Elaine Ziemba addressed a group of about 50 homosexual and lesbian students January 29, 1991, at the University of Toronto on the occasion of ‘Lesbian and Gay Awareness Week.’
Throughout the hour-long meeting, Ms. Ziemba bent over backwards in her attempt not to appear ‘homophobic’.
Myth
The first thing she did was to dismiss the idea that homosexuals are connected to the AIDS plague. She called this a ‘myth.’ (In 1988 96.4 per cent of Toronto’s AIDS patients were homosexuals.)
From ... (Continue reading)

Frank M. Kennedy Ontario Premier Bob Rae has responded to a letter from the Ontario Bishops (November 1990) and from the Knights of Columbus (December 1990), both of which objected to the underwriting of free-standing abortion ‘clinics’ in Ontario.
Both are reaffirmations of the NDP government’s aggressive pro-abortion policy.
Two months
It took almost two months for Premier Bob Rae to reply to bishop John O’Mara, president of the Ontario Conference of Catholic Bishops (OCCB). Bishop O’Mara had written “that innocent life needs to be protected ... (Continue reading)

Frank M. Kennedy "The new abortion law is a minefield for abortionists," claims Bev Daw, executive director of the Canadian Rights Coalition (CRC).
"Doctors are not going to get away by hiding behind their lab coats," Mrs. Daw told The Interim Wherever we find evidence of a bungled abortion and somebody who feels angry about it, we're going to urge them to sue."
Sloppy
Mrs. Daw heads an organization concerned about the plight of women who are suffering from the after-effects of abortion.
"Abortionists are notoriously sloppy," ... (Continue reading)
