The extreme case described hides the fact that a large number of Canadian babies lose their lives for reasons of convenience, and to the point that the demographic crises in this country looms so large that immigration is seen as the only solution.  The hic is that no large numbers of children are being born any where else either.  There needs to be a balance.  The rights of conscience of women who do not wish to abort to please their employers, their mothers, or their boyfriends should be given more weight than they are at present.  The slogan "if you don't want an abortion, don't get one" belies the coercion that many women feel when they become pregnant.  And at present, the unborn child counts for nothing, even when he or she is much wanted.  Too much is being sacrificed to the abortion machine at present, and it is time to step away and consider its global impact.  And rethink its imperative.
