Anti-life bigotry strikes pro-life club at Canadian university

A Canadian student pro-life club has been stripped of its club status and funding not because they have violated any rules, but simply because they advocated for human life. This blatant bigotry shows the intolerance of anti-life forces by the University of Victoria’s Students’ Society.

The National Post reports:

A decision by the University of Victoria’s Students’ Society to strip the campus anti-abortion club of its official status and funding has drawn the ire of the B.C. Civil Liberties Association. The student society took the action against Youth Protecting Youth after receiving a complaint that anti-abortion advocacy “inherently discriminates” against women.

To contact the University of Victoria with your concerns or opinions:

Dear Reader,

Every day in America, more than 2,800 preborn babies lose their lives to abortion.

That number should break our hearts and move us to action.

Ending this tragedy requires daily commitment from people like you who refuse to stay silent.

Millions read Live Action News each month — imagine the impact if each of us took a stand for life 365 days a year.

Right now, we’re urgently seeking 500 new Life Defenders (monthly donors) to join us before the end of October. And thanks to a generous $250,000 matching grant, your first monthly gift will be DOUBLED to help save lives and build a culture that protects the preborn.

Will you become one of the 500 today? Click here now to become a Live Action Life Defender and have your first gift doubled.

Together, we can end abortion and create a future where every child is cherished and every mother is supported.
