PLY han diag dn ry "A Family Tradition for 127 Years" a al - Letter to the editor PORT PERRY STAR - Wednesday, September 8,1993- 7 NDP now taking away my rights From Page 6 regardless of age. This includes abortion. #21, 22 - a law denying the rights of ordinary citizens to protest or provide pro-life assis- tance at abortion facilities. #43-45 - expediting the test- ing and approval of the abortion pill RU-486, and making the hu- man pesticide free of charge. Many of these 46 recommen- dations have been quietly passed under the table. This is a sneaky effort on behalf of our government in order to avoid public hearings debate and out- cry. This also contradicts its stance on what a democratic na- that this provincial government would not even hesitate to pro- ceed with implementing these injunctions. You cannot stereotype the ac- tions of those pro-lifers who have been extreme in their ac- tions. It is just as childish as an elementary school teacher who keeps their class in at recess be- cause of one person's wrong do- ing Really! This is not political- ly correct and no longer is it a question of one's opinion on the subject; it is now a question of one's opinion not being allowed to be expressed in the open, re- garding this subject. Our government has already rights? I don't think so. Katherine Ouellette, Port Perry Superspuds say thanks!
