The Bare Facts: Abortion in our society is rampant

  • Every working day, apporoximately 385 babies are aborted in Canada.
    (100,000 abortions/yr at 5 days/week of abortion = 385 abortions/day)
     
  • According to the Allan Guttmacher Institute (AGI), a radically pro-choice organization, 23% of all Canadian pregnancies end in abortion. For every 3 live births, one is aborted.**   1
     
  • AGI wrote:

    “Given the current worldwide abortion rate of 35 abortions annually per 1,000 women 15-44, over the course of 30 years (roughly the span of a woman's childbearing years), about 1,050 abortions will occur per 1,000 women. This implies a lifetime average of about one abortion per woman.” 2


  • Childbirth by Choice Trust (A pro-choice organization) wrote:

    “About 50% of pregnant teenagers choose to have an abortion. About 20,000 teenagers have abortions in Canada each year” 3


  • 43% of women obtaining abortions identify themselves as Protestant, and 27% identify themselves as Catholic. 13% of abortion patients say they are “born-again or evangelical Christians” 4
     
  • These children are fatherless. The fathers have NO say.

    “In 1989, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled in the Chantal Daigle case that a woman’s choice to terminate her pregnancy cannot be stopped legally by the ‘biological father’” 5


This is murder in our society, and we need to do something.
