Pro-life - Abortion
You can save pre-born lives this summer
Yesterday
I stood on a sidewalk holding a sign. It read, Pregnant? Need Help?
I watched as the crowds hurried by and saw, on our other signs, what abortion does to a pre-born child.
I asked a young woman what she thought of abortion. Without slowing her pace, she said “I just had one last week.”
Every day, three hundred pre-born children are killed in Canada. A staggering number which, we too easily forget, isn’t just a number. That number represents children – children who were killed.
Yesterday, I met the mom of one of those little boys or girls. I almost cried as I watched her walk away. I have cried since. I cried for the mother who lost her greatest gift and for the child who was mourned only by a stranger.
Today
As I think about this child, I see lack. The lack of advocates – we need more people standing up on behalf of these little ones. The lack of time – we’ll never get last week back; we don’t get another chance to save that precious child. The lack of education – Did she know there were resources available and people willing to help? Did she recognize what the abortionist was going to do? Did she know what “her choice” cost?
It’s not that we did nothing. We were on the street last week and the week before. We’ve been out week after week, month after month. Yet somehow, the something we did was not enough. We missed this mother.
With approximately 300 pre-born children killed every day, we are living in the midst of one of, if not the, single greatest human rights violations in human history, with the victims entirely reliant on people like us to advocate on their behalf. With no legal restrictions in Canada protecting pre-born children, their lives may be extinguished through all 9 months of pregnancy, with little or no explanation required.
We must engage every Canadian on the issue of abortion. Every pro-lifer must recognize their responsibility to help. Every pre- and post-abortive woman and man must understand the value of their sons and daughters. Every pre-born child must be safe in their mother’s womb.
The hard truth is, it’s too late to prevent that mother from choosing abortion; too late to save her little boy or girl. But it’s not too late to mourn for them. It’s not too late to share the truth. It’s not too late to protect others like them.
This is the least we should do.
Tomorrow
Another little girl will be killed. She’ll be all alone with no one to advocate for her, no one to protect her.
Another little boy will be killed. No one will mourn. No one will cry. No one will bury his little body.
Unless we act.
We cannot change yesterday but we could change tomorrow.

The Canadian Centre for Bio-Ethical Reform (CCBR) is a national, educational pro-life organization committed to ending the killing of pre-born children by proactively engaging Canadians with the visual reality of what abortion does to pre-born children, together with compassionate and compelling conversation skills to change minds, save lives, and transform our culture.
We are excited to partner with churches, pro-life groups, and individuals to equip pro- lifers with the conversational tools and experience they need to have productive conversations with their friends, family, and members of their community. You can learn more about how to bring members of the CCBR team to your community by contacting us at [email protected].
Additionally, CCBR will be hosting our world-renowned paid internships where pro-lifers can join for either four months (May-August) or two months (July-August) this upcoming summer to receive expert training from global pro-life leaders, before joining CCBR’s team of experienced activists for daily outreach, changing hearts and minds of men and women throughout the Greater Toronto area.
This incredible program will provide you with the confidence you need to engage in your own compassionate and compelling conversations about abortion with all those in your sphere of influence, all while making some of the best friends you will ever have as you serve shoulder-to-shoulder with like-minded men and women committed to ending the killing of pre-born children in our country.

Number killed via IVF surpasses those of abortion
Approximately 96,000 US babies were born via IVF in 2023 and for some that is reason enough to call government policies promoting IVF "pro-family" and "pro-life." However, while in the US 1 million children are murdered each year via abortion, a new report says that between approximately 2 million and nearly 4 million children were murdered during the IVF process. That means that abortion and IVF combined likely account for more deaths than all other causes combined. And that is not pro-life.

If I invest based on my values, won’t my investments underperform?
We'd never invest in an abortion clinic, but some of the large investment funds many of us have in our portfolio might well invest in abortion, risqué entertainment, gambling, and other ventures we'd certainly want no part in. But if we are more selective in our investment, does that have to come at a cost to our returns? Maybe. But not necessarily.
