Senator Ruth is right, the lefties are too stupid to shut up about abortion. In Canada a woman can get an abortion paid for by taxpayers up until the baby takes it's first breath. No other country in the world allows that much latitude. What are feminists fighting? They get to kill their babies at any point in their pregnancy and get it paid for by us. The Conservative government is not willing to change that position, but as Senator Ruth told the feminists, shut up about it, because the only way it can go in Canada is for restrictions on abortions. They are too stupid to understand that, Canada has NO RESTRICTIONS right now, so the only way it can go is towards limited abortions. Feminists remind me of all the blond jokes. They don't know when they have a good thing going. Poor Senator Ruth tried to tell them but even she has to admit defeat.
Pro-lifers can't lose! If the feminists keep this up, Canadians are going to demand some limits to abortions, it's the only way the issue can go. It can't get more liberal unless feminists are going to support killing new born breathing babies, but even they can't be so cruel.
If the feminists aren't whining about needing more abortions world wide, they are yapping about their funding cuts by the mean old Conservative government.
Match International got $400,000 cut just weeks ago. So what do they do? You tell me because:
1. They do not publish their financial statements
2. They do not list any Canadian projects
3. They advocate, but do not provide any actual results
Placement Student Opportunities
In collaboration with the University of Ottawa, Carleton University and Algonquin College, MATCH provides placement opportunities for students in the following areas of study: women’s studies, social work, international development, international relations, political science, fundraising and marketing, sociology, international law, public policy and public health. Students considering a placement at MATCH should contact the Centre.
They don't appear to be helping anyone except maybe themselves. Show me the results. Show me a program in Canada that helps aboriginal women. Show me something for my $400,000. They appear to be government bloodsuckers:
So, $50 bucks to Match equals $200. Nice gig if you can get it.
Then we get an ultra lefty crying about all those rape victims.
McTeer, who works with the White Ribbon Alliance for Safe Motherhood, said she was at first "delighted" to hear that Prime Minister Stephen Harper planned to make reducing maternal and childhood morbidity and mortality in the developing world a key initiative when he hosts next month's G8 and G20 summits in Ontario.
However, the federal government's plan to exclude abortion from its funding for the initiative means women who live in conflict zones where rape is a tool of war, or young girls who are married off to older men and find themselves pregnant at age 10 or 11, will be left to their own devices when trying to access a safe abortion, McTeer said.
Safe Motherhood? I love that idea, where do I sign up! Actually, if you go to their site, no mention of abortion is made anywhere, so why is McTeer denigrating her own organization? Why is killing African babies so important to McTeer? The White Ribbon organization actually has annual reports, not like Match, maybe that's why Match lost it's funding.
I'm not sure that White Ribbon should be happy with McTeer. She has done more harm than good to their cause.
For heavens sake, quit with the rape gig. I understand that rape is a horrible crime, and if lefties would only support the tough on crime bills, we might get some of those sickos behind bars. If a woman is raped, the chances that she will get pregnant are pretty slim, but it is used as a big hammer to support their position.
Would eco-environment let a mouse out of their cage.

The Senator is pro choice, so obviously she wasn't trying to intimidate women's groups into becoming pro lifers.
This never had anything to do with domestic policy. It has everything to do with Canadians not wanting to pay for foreign abortions. End of story.
Hunter, I repeat here some information I've posted elsewhere. Maureen McTeer adds even more misinformation to that already spread by the Liberals.
Thus far on the maternal health issue, the Liberals have misled Canadians.
1. They are urging Canada follow the US lead without acknowledging the US restricts abortion funding domestically http://www.canada.com/news/Obama+abortion+order+lures+votes+riles+Republicans/2709341/story.html
“WASHINGTON - President Barack Obama announced Sunday he will reaffirm a ban on using federal funds to pay for abortions, which convinced some holdout Democrats to support the healthcare overhaul but riled Republicans who said the decision could be easily reversed. ...“
And internationally, the US focus is NOT on abortion. The US position sounds very similar to the Canadian initiative http://www.guttmacher.org/media/inthenews/2010/02/05/index.html
“ … Maternal and Child Health Globally: A Big Leap Forward
Efforts to reduce maternal mortality and improve maternal health would gain significantly under the president’s proposal, with its new focus on maternal and newborn health. … The budget proposal notes that the maternal and child health program “will also actively invest in integrating across all health programs, particularly family planning, nutrition and infectious diseases.” ”
2. The Liberals are advocating Canada impose its abortion on demand policy abroad, despite the fact abortion is not permitted or is very restricted in many developing countries http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion_law#Africa
Notice how many African countries restrict or do not allow abortion altogether in cases of rape. The Republic of the Congo and the Democratic Republic of the Congo do not allow abortion in cases of rape, yet "Congo" is the country Bob Rae uses to make a point similar to McTeer's -- that Canada needs to fund abortions in developing countries. Would the Liberals and Ms. McTeer like to see Canada go into those countries, guns ablazing, to impose abortion on them?
3. The Liberals are using “family planning” & “reproductive health” as synonyms for abortion, in contrast to the United Nations Population Fund http://www.unfpa.org/rh/planning.htm
“Guided by paragraph 8.25 of the Cairo Programme of Action, UNFPA does not support or promote abortion as a method of family planning. It accords the highest priority and support to voluntary family planning to prevent unwanted pregnancies so as to eliminate recourse to abortion. UNFPA supports governments to strengthen their national health systems to deal effectively with complications of unsafe abortions, thereby saving women’s lives (every year, an estimated 74,000 women die as the result of unsafe abortions). ...”
4. The Liberals have once again used “Bush”, this time as the anti-abortion bogeyman who enacted the Mexico City Policy, aka “gag rule”, whereas that policy was introduced in 1984 by President Reagan.
Good post Hunter. The feminists are only hurting themselves because I bet there are lots of Canadians that don't even realize their taxes pay for abortion on demand in Canada.
I have a niece in Toronto who is all for people being allowed to make their own decisions regarding abortions but was shocked to learn that her tax dollars pay for it.
Then she got upset. So there may be more Canadians out there just waking up to the fact that this is costing us big bucks at home and they might start complaining.
How about sex change operations? I have problem for paying for most of those as well!
