MPs ask for investigation into post-abortion murders

January 31, 2013 by Andrea Mrozek 1 Comment

Read about it here:

A trio of backbench Conservative MPs have written to the Mounties to ask for investigations of possible homicides “that appear to have started out as attempted abortions.”

In the Jan. 23 letter, Saskatchewan MP Maurice Vellacott tells RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson that between 2000 and 2009 there were 491 infant deaths in Canada following abortions at 20 weeks gestation or greater that resulted in live births.

“They evacuated out of the womb, so under the Criminal Code definition in Canada, that is a person,” Vellacott told QMI Agency.

    I wonder how the Canadian Medical Association will approach this one.

    Section 223(2) of the Criminal Code reads, “A person commits homicide when he causes injury to a child before or during its birth as a result of which the child dies after becoming a human being.”

    So are they going to argue that the doctor’s didn’t actually cause injury to the child, but the child died of prematurity (of course, the doctor’s actions caused the prematurity, but let’s not get all technical).

    Or are they maybe, just maybe, going to FINALLY sanction a doctor for performing a botched abortion.

    Watch and see where the cards fall. Will the doctors circle the wagons around these abortionists, or will the wagons circle and these abortionist be left on the outside.

    It could get interesting. However, more than likely, this story will just be ignored.
