Planned Parenthood mocks the Christmas message

LifeSite News "In its never-ending effort to promote the gospel of 'choice,' Planned Parenthood has chosen to mock the Christian faith by issuing a holiday card with the message, 'Choice on Earth,'" reports Jim Sedlak of Stop Planned Parenthood International (STOPP), a project of the American Life ...

Planned Parenthood charity status under fire

By Tim Bloedow The Interim Planned Parenthood has probably had better days. Facing setbacks at the local level and even to their international operation, the national branch in Canada is also facing an attack. Not long ago, the pro-abortion purveyor of sex education and contraceptives was seen as unassailable by many of its opponents, having become entrenched as the organization of preference by most Western governments on issues pertaining to "reproductive health" and rights. At the federal level in Canada, they are also ... (Continue reading)

Sex ed’s failure

A few weeks ago Planned Parenthood was found on the front page of my daily newspaper crying crocodile tears about the scandalous rate of abortion in Canada, which it seems has increased every year between 1985 and 1997, when it stood at 33.5 abortions for every 100 live births. This is very interesting in light of the fact that one of Planned Parenthood's favorite hobby-horses - sex education in schools - also spread its tentacles wider ... (Continue reading)

Hamiltonians cut Planned Parenthood down to size

Those who think the international behemoth of Planned Parenthood can't be beaten - at least at the local level - should look to the experience of Hamilton. Just three years ago, the Planned Parenthood clinic in the Steel City's downtown core was raking in $359,000 in annual funding (or 51 per cent of the area's budget for "sexual health"), allowing it to provide its "services" for 39 hours per week. Now, thanks ... (Continue reading)

Planners of Cairo+5, including the pro-abortion United Nations Population Fund and the International Planned Parenthood Federation, sought to expand abortion rights and contraception access, as well as promote sexual ...

PP will be a focus at conference

Is Planned Parenthood good for our communities? Those in the Canadian pro-life, pro-family scene face the challenge of trying to relate to the public at large why the world's foremost proponent of contraception and so-called reproductive rights is, in fact, bad news. Attendees at this year's National Pro-Life Conference in Ancaster, Ont., just outside of Hamilton, will get some expert insights into how to effectively battle the birth-control behemoth at the local level, when Patricia Bainbridge of Life Decisions International ...

Planned Parenthood Resurfaces in SW Ontario

It was good while it lasted. After a three-year gap, the municipal council in Kitchener-Waterloo, Ont. has decided to fund the local Planned Parenthood chapter to the tune of $25,000 in the coming year. The move comes after municipal elections that saw a few more pro-Planned Parenthood councillors (including the mayor) added to the roster. Three years ago, the municipal council cut off the funding it had been providing to the Planned ... (Continue reading)

Corporate support for Planned Parenthood decreasing

WASHINGTON -- Douglas R. Scott, president of Life Decisions International, Jan. 9 called the significant increase in Planned Parenthood's abortion business "scandalous" and said the organization's leaders have "created a lucrative climate for abortion." The 1996-1997 Planned Parenthood Federation of America Annual Report notes that the organization's personnel committed 153,367 abortions during the last reporting period, compared to 139,899 in the previous period. PPFA affiliates referred a scant 6,274 ... (Continue reading)

Curious choice for PP award

Interim Special I was personally offended when Planned Parenthood recently announced plans to give its Margaret Sanger Award to the BBC documentary “The Dying Rooms.” Don’t get me wrong: The documentary is a wonderful and courageous piece of work. An undercover camera crew managed to gain entry to China’s state-run orphanages and videotape the mistreatment and murder of the girls there. I appeared in the documentary, testifying that this tragedy is a direct consequence of the country’s one-child ... (Continue reading)

PP invites support from teenagers

Pro-life communities are not the only ones making an appeal young people. A recent item circulated by Pro-Life E News Canada shows that Planned Parenthood of America is also looking to appeal to youth. PP has designated May as National Teen Pregnancy Prevention Month. To mark the occasion, PP has invited teenagers from across America to discuss “responsible, healthy choices” made regarding relationships and sexuality. According to the report, the international anti-life, anti-family organization has asked teens to relate positive experiences they ... (Continue reading)

Anti-life message losing ground? STOPP looking to continued expansion

From its humble beginnings in a small Brooklyn, N.Y. clinic before First World War, the Planned Parenthood organization has grown quickly into an international behemoth with tentacles reaching into all corners of the world. With the active support of people in high places, the organization today serves as the world’s leader in a number of areas troubling to persons of faith, morality, conscience and pro-life persuasion: it wantonly provides birth control and abortions; it promotes worldwide population control; it gives birth ...

PPFC asked to stop misleading tactics

WASHINGTON – Douglas R. Scott, president of Life Decisions International (LDI), called on Planned Parenthood Federation of Canada (PPFC) to end its unethical fund-raising practices. “The PPFC needs to tell people the truth that it has been lying in its fundraising letters.” Background: in March 1993, Douglas R. Scott sent a letter to corporate supporters of Planned Parenthood stating that they would be added to a boycott list if their support for the abortion advocacy organization did not ...
