BREAKING in Canada: Ontario to Ban Pro-lifers from Praying, Ministering and Protesting Outside Abortion ClinicsCampaign Life is urging pro-life advocates to lobby their MPPs to stand up for the freedom of speech of all Ontarians and to not cave to the abortion industry's demands.

Mary Ellen Douglas, Campaign Life's Ontario president, echoed Hughes' concerns.

Campaign Life is urging pro-life advocates to lobby their MPPs to stand up for the freedom of speech of all Ontarians and to not cave to the abortion industry's demands.
