Late-term abortion is “rare” in Canada, we are told. What is the reality?

The Canadian Medical Association Journal recently published an article calling for a change in the recording of stillbirths, due to the fact that Canada's figures are abnormally high compared to other countries because abortions after 20 weeks are counted as stillbirths... The article mentions a stillbirth rate more than double that of other countries with similar economies!

This obviously leads us to wonder whether babies are being left to die after being expelled from the womb. A study conducted in Quebec and published in 2024 revealed that 11.2% of babies aborted in the second trimester were still alive at birth.

On the same subject, the media reported that in South Korea, a woman and two doctors were sentenced to prison for the murder of a baby, receiving respectively sentences of three years with probation, four years, and six years. The woman, who was 36 weeks pregnant, obtained an abortion from these doctors, which consisted of extracting the baby by caesarean section and killing it in a freezer, according to court documents. As the baby was alive outside its mother's womb, the case fell under the country's infanticide laws.

On a lighter note, good news comes from south of the border. In its March 2 ruling Mirabelli v. Bonta, the U.S. Supreme Court recognized the right of parents to educate their children without state interference, condemning California for “transitioning” children in school without their parents' knowledge.

On this day, March 4, 2026, the 40 Days for Life campaign are underway, beginning on Ash Wednesday and ending on Palm Sunday. Fifteen days have already passed, with 25 remaining. Under the leadership of our colleague Brian Jenkins, the 40 Days in Montreal are an event of prayer, witness, and offering help of great importance. They ensure a constant pro-life presence in the very vicinity of these abortion clinics where unborn children are killed. If you live nearby, will you give even one hour of your time in a week to participate in this life-saving work?

For more information, contact Brian Jenkins at (438) 930-8643.

Brian with participants in the 40 Days.

Don't forget our petition against the C-9 censorship bill. Censorship is already strong enough in Canada that we shouldn't let it get any worse. The case of British Columbia school board trustee Barry Neufeld, who was fined $750,000 for his bold criticism of teaching LGBT ideology to children, should serve as a warning to us all.

Finally, I wholeheartedly invite you to register for our Génération Vie event, which will take place on April 25 in Montreal.

The Government of Quebec is currently defending itself before the Superior Court for having banned in June 2023 a Christian event under the pretext that its organizers were "anti-abortion" (i.e.: pro-life).

This ban was originally the initiative of Caroline Proulx, then Minister of Tourism, who was reported by a journalist (don’t be mistaken, their role is not so much to report news as to provoke events and influence) the upcoming holding of the event "Rallye Foi, Feu, Liberté" organized by Harvest Ministries International at the Quebec City Convention Centre.

Upon reading sentences like "the most dangerous place for a child in Canada is its mother’s womb" on the "Harvest Ministries website" (or at least a site that was owned by HMI at the time), Proulx felt "shocked" and forbade the event from taking place. At the time, François Legault fully supported his minister’s gesture: "We will not allow anti-abortion groups to be able to perform large shows in public organims."

Now, in court, defending herself against HMI’s lawsuit for discrimination, Proulx is giving a rather strange speech if it doesn’t reveal her mentality. According to Proulx, whose indignation La Presse reports:

"It’s completely false to claim that the most dangerous place for a child in Canada is his mother’s womb, she said. What this just says, [...] is that women are dangerous."

Let’s stop for a moment. According to the article in La Presse, Ms. Proulx is indignant at the conclusion that one can draw from the premises, but has not bothered to refute the relevance of these premises. If the unborn child is a child in the same way as the child already born, then yes the uterus is a statistically dangerous place for the child since one pregnancy out of five* ends in abortion, a practice that reaps its sinister harvest of about 100,000 babies in Canada per year. Are women then «dangerous»? A number of them are, and for their unborn child since they have it killed. When a practice is not prohibited by law, whatever its immorality, unfortunately a larger or smaller portion of the population will resort to it.

Proulx to outbid: "It’s against the values of the State. The State is resolutely pro-choice and we must ensure as a government that this message is very clear to the population.” We will have understood it...

Proulx also read on the site that several leaders were under "diabolical" influence. The site in question states, according to Proulx: "We pray for a reform that leads to the rewriting of the laws of the country and declare that God will have dominion from coast to coast".

Proulx had some amazing words about this last passage:

“God will not rewrite, Your Honour, the laws in Quebec, and God will not dictate to women in Quebec how and when they can dispose of their bodies.”

Are these the words of an atheist? But she would then have said that God did not exist, that invoking him was therefore not relevant to the drafting of laws. His statement implies that God exists, but that He does not have a say in public and private conduct. This discourse is more that of revolt against God than that of unbelief. When we understand this, we understand the virulence of secularism in Quebec, and we also understand that what drives the government today is not so much atheism, as it defends itself for that matter, but antitheism.

But if God does not "rewrite" the laws of the nation, what will happen to it?

We published about what had outraged Caroline Proulx and about her reaction two posts on Facebook. Don’t hesitate to express your opinion below!

I also kindly ask you, if it has not already been done, to sign our petition against the censorship law C-9.

Finally, I invite you to register for our new Génération Vie event which will take place on April 25th, come in large numbers!

*Taking miscarriages into account, otherwise the proportion of abortions in relation to live births is about 1/4.

Today, Ash Wednesday, marks the beginning of Lent, a period of penance in preparation for Christ's resurrection at Easter, a period when we are especially called upon to turn away from sin.

“Sin”! Some find it “hateful” to label certain practices as such, rejecting the distinction Christians make between sin and sinner.

However, with Bill C-9 aimed at combating “hatred", Mark Carney's Liberals are precisely endangering our ability to denounce the malice of sinful practices, a necessary step in calling for conversion.

Regarding C-9, Quebec Life Coalition, represented by its president Georges Buscemi, submitted petitions against this bill in Ottawa along with several pro-life organizations. We held a press conference on the same day to explain the purpose of our action. See the video here.

From left to right, David Cooke, Brandan Tan, and Pete Baklinski from the Campaign Life Coalition, Gregory Tomchyshyn from CitizenGo, and Georges Buscemi from Quebec Life Coalition.

Our own petition against C-9 has reached 1,025 signatures, our goal is 2,000, a big thank you to everyone who signed. If you haven't signed yet, we invite you to do so. We must send a message to the Canadian government that citizens do not want to be censored under the pretext of “hatred.”

Our work to spread information on social media continues. We recently published a post on Facebook about the emerging phenomenon of young men in their early twenties undergoing vasectomies in Quebec. Our post has been viewed more than 500,000 times, attracting a large number of people who oppose our view on the issue. Nevertheless, this particular issue is troubling to a number of people.

Commentator Mathieu Bock-Côté wrote a column in the Journal de Montréal in response to an article published in the same newspaper reporting on a young man who had undergone sterilization. In his article, MBC laments that such a young man would have given up the ability to give life, a decision he may regret later, summarizing this phenomenon as an exhaustion of the vital instinct in society.

Finally, I would like to mention several of our events that are currently underway or will be taking place in the coming months:

• 40 Days for Life, a continuous pro-life witnessing effort lasting 40 days, from February 18th to March 29th, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. (contact: Brian Jenkins at (438) 930-8643).
• Génération Vie: a conference to be held on April 25th to bring together pro-life advocates to establish a culture of life in Quebec.
• The Ottawa March for Life, May 14th from noon to 4 p.m. on Parliament Hill, the largest pro-life gathering in Canada.
• The Quebec City March for Life, May 30, an essential event for spreading the pro-life message in the public sphere.

Sincerely,
For Life,
Augustin Hamilton

The Liberals' Bill C-9 continues to make its way through the legislative process. C-9, entitled the “Combatting Hate Act”, would vaguely redefine "hatred" while increasing penalties for crimes motivated by “hatred”.

There is also the danger that the amendment — aimed at removing the bona fide religious defense from the Criminal Code — which was the subject of an agreement between the Bloc and the Liberals, may soon be added to the bill. And when we know that a Liberal as high-ranking as the Minister of Canadian Identity and Culture, Marc Miller, has expressly designated certain passages of the Bible as “hateful” toward homosexuals and raised the idea that they could be prosecuted, there is cause for concern...

Read an analysis of Bill C-9 here.

To raise awareness among Canadian citizens and politicians about the dangers of C-9, several pro-life and pro-family groups, including Quebec Life Coalition, represented by its president, Georges Buscemi, and Campaign Life Coalition have decided to hold a press conference today in Ottawa. Mr. Buscemi will also participate in a Théovox Actualités program on the same subject that day.

To counter this censorship, presented under the guise of fighting “hatred,” we invite you to sign our petition against Bill C-9. If we don't make our voices heard, how far will the Liberal government (and its allies) go in their appetite for censorship against Christians and people of common sense?

Our fundraising campaign for our “Pregnant and Worried?” service was successfully completed thanks to your generosity, exceeding our goal of $15,000 to reach $18,000!

A big thank you to everyone who participated. Your support allows us to reach more pregnant women in need online and help them before they do the irreparable. Your support also allows us to organize a network of concrete assistance throughout Quebec.

Thank you again,
For Life,
Augustin Hamilton

P.S. Don't forget to sign the petition against the C-9 censorship bill.

We are on the last day of our blitz campaign for Pregnant and Worried. Our goal: $15,000 in two weeks. As I write this, we have reached $12,800, which is 85% of the goal.

All we need is another $2,200.

The stories you've read — the young mother in Montreal who was saved in time, the pro-life nurse who spoke up at the decisive moment, the grandmother who sought help from across the ocean — show the importance of being there at the crucial moment. It is this presence that we want to ensure with your support.

We are just a few steps away from our goal, and we can get there.

Why is this final push so important?

Pregnant and Worried does not operate on nothing or randomly. This organization has a very specific goal:

• to ensure a visible online presence when a woman searches late at night;
• to respond quickly and humanely when she calls;
• to train and coordinate a discreet network of volunteers and professionals;
• to offer a real alternative before the irreversible act is taken.

We know — studies show it — that thousands of abortions take place because of a lack of support at the precise moment of crisis. We also know that when someone intervenes in time, life can be saved.

Sometimes the difference comes down to a conversation, an explanation, a presence, a number found on the Internet. And that depends on us.

$2,200 to reach the goal

At this point, it's no longer a big mountain to climb. We will cross the finish line today if:

• 26 people donate $100;
• or 52 people donate $50;
• or a few donors make a larger donation.

So I am asking you, if you can, to make one final, generous gesture.

Make your donation now

We know you can do it. Your generosity has already helped us reach 85% in two weeks. The last 15% is within our reach. Let's not let this campaign stop just a few steps from the finish line. Let's finish it together, let's finish it strong, because at the end of the day, it's not about a number.

It's about a woman in distress who is searching.
It's about a baby who could live.
It's about a network that needs to be ready.

Thank you for being part of this concrete, strategic, and vital work.

With my deepest gratitude,
Augustin Hamilton

P.S. We are $2,200 short of our $15,000 goal.
Today is the last day.
If you've been waiting for the right moment to act, now is the time.

Donate to the campaign

We are now 8 days away from the end of our lightning fundraiser for Enceinte et Inquiète, our pregnancy help and referral service. So far, you have helped us raise $6,074 toward our $15,000 goal.

That means $8,926 still to go.

This campaign has already shown you two powerful realities:

First, the baby saved because an African grandmother found Enceinte et Inquiète online and reached out across continents. Second, the baby saved in a Montreal hospital because a pro-life nurse had the clarity and courage to speak when everything was on the line.

If you missed them, you can read those stories here:

• The African grandmother and her grandchild in the womb.
• The hospital nurse and the mother who chose life.

Those stories show what Enceinte et Inquiète does when the moment of crisis arrives.

But today, I want to show you something else just as important: how we prepare people before that moment arrives.

One of the main purposes of Enceinte et Inquiète is not only to answer emergency calls, but to equip volunteers of all walks of life to defend life where they already live and work.

Doctors.
Nurses.
Students.
Parents.
Retirees.
Ordinary people with extraordinary love and courage.

When they are equipped, encouraged, and supported, they become instruments of life in their own circles of influence.

Just recently, our colleague Arpad was invited to speak in Edmonton at The Back Porch, a pregnancy care centre located directly across from an abortion centre. The event was hosted by Rachel, the director of the centre, and organized in collaboration with Edmonton Pro-Life.

Arpad Nagy giving a presentation in Edmonton.

Arpad's presentation that covered:

• Quebec’s early history and cultural roots
• The impact of the Quiet Revolution
• Why Campagne Québec-Vie was founded
• What Enceinte et Inquiète does today
• How the Quebec pro-life movement has grown stronger
• What the future holds for pro-life work in Quebec

There were snacks, coffee, discussion, and a long question period. People were deeply appreciative. And something important happened: bridges were built between Quebec and Alberta, between people who share the same mission, but often work in isolation.

Lori from Edmonton Pro-Life, Rachel from the Edmonton pregnancy center, and Arpad from QLC.

This is exactly what we want to do here in Quebec in 2026.

We are planning to organize an annual Enceinte et Inquiète convention for pro-life volunteers, including workshops, training sessions, and opportunities for encouragement and networking. It will be a place where people can:

• gain confidence,
• learn practical tools,
• receive moral and spiritual encouragement,
• and realize they are not alone.

Because often, all people need is encouragement and example to decide to stand against the current and do the good they were created to do as people of conscience and children of God.

Your donation today does not just respond to crises. It **equips **the people who will respond to them tomorrow.

It helps us recruit volunteers across Quebec who will save lives where they live, using the tools, wisdom, and courage they received though us.

With 8 days left, and $8,926 still to raise, we urgently need your help to finish strong.

Please give today to support:

• our networking efforts across Canada,
• our volunteer training and encouragement,
• and the future Enceinte et Inquiète convention in Quebec.

Together, we are not only saving lives. We are forming a generation of people ready to defend life wherever God places them.

Thank you for standing with us.

I recently wrote a Facebook post on Canada's demographic issue, mentioning the decline in the Canadian population following recent immigration restrictions and emphasizing the need to restore the importance of the family in order for society to be viable. I was surprised to see more than 1,000 likes, just under 1,000 comments, and some 150 shares.

You can read wonderful comments, such as this one:

I grew up in a family of 10 children with modest incomes, and it was possible to find housing as long as we were willing to share rooms with three people and roll up our sleeves to build and maintain our house and vegetable garden with our own hands.

A small income from renting out the upstairs also helped us make ends meet each month.

The savings generated by everyone's work enabled us to attend university, financed by student loans.

We had no car, no dishwasher — in short, no luxuries. Living modestly allowed us to achieve our goals of improving our living conditions with a minimum of sacrifice.

It's possible, but you have to prioritize the right things...

Admittedly, a significant proportion of the reactions expressed disagreement with the proposal in this publication, with less than a quarter of the “likes” consisting of “laughs,” as if there were something funny about the situation – but that's normal, even the most beautiful monuments, which certainly do not include the humble publication mentioned above, are not spared by these birds that leave a trace of their passage...

All this to say: the demographic issue arouses a lot of passion. Why? Because it is one of the main factors that determine the future of a people, and because, as long as people still feel attached to their nation, they cannot remain indifferent to it. Others, apatride in the heart, will see no problem with society literally degenerating and will laugh at this dismal spectacle (all that's missing is for them to play the lyre...).

Fortunately, in Quebec, a large number of people are still attached to their identity and will view with concern the replacement of society by mass immigration or its gradual decline. In both cases, Quebecers are not having enough children. And it must be said that if Quebecers had maintained the fertility rate we had on the eve of the “Quiet Revolution” (which was more like collective suicide than anything else), we would now have 20 million inhabitants.

We are entering an election year in Quebec, and it appears that the leader of the Parti Québécois, Paul St-Pierre Plamondon, wants to bring Quebec to a third referendum on Quebec independence. At the very least, this is an issue that will clearly take center stage throughout the year, both because of its supporters and its opponents.

But whether you are for or against such a project, the real issue, which risks being overshadowed by the referendum question, is that of demographics: if we don't have children, what is the point of staying in Canada or leaving it? The heritage we carry with us risks dying with us, because it can only be well passed on through the family, and if we no longer have families, we will have no one to pass it on to.

I am aware of the many obstacles that stand in the way of achieving this goal: the cost of rent and housing, inflation, education (or the challenge of raising children outside the monopoly of government education). Everything must be done to remove these obstacles.

The issue of family must be given greater prominence now more than ever, by “family,” I mean the real family, the one that allowed us to build Quebec, it must be encouraged, and we must also restore the spirit of sacrifice so well expressed in the comment quoted above. However, today's society is imbued with a spirit of selfishness and consumerism that is summed up in the sinister slogan “my body, my choice.” The two spirits are absolute antagonists, and the fate of Quebec depends on the outcome of this battle.

For my part, I was raised in a large family and we weren't exactly rich. Yes, we also slept two or even three to a room — but that's nothing, because family is the greatest reward for sacrifice.

For Life,
Augustin Hamilton

Here we are at the end of 2025, a year full of events and trials, good news and bad news. We have witnessed many advances in the culture of death this year, but also several victories for the culture of life. In Quebec, in particular, we see several bills threatening faith and life. However, in Quebec itself, we also see the pro-life movement growing stronger, promising even bolder actions for the coming year, 2026.

Below are some of our articles from the year that is coming to an end, recounting several significant events and actions.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support.
May you have a happy and holy year 2026.
Augustin Hamilton

On Quebec's Proposed Constitution: A Grave Step Backwards for Life and Memory
On October 9, 2025, the Legault government tabled a bill aiming to provide Quebec with its own constitution. Among the so-called “foundational principles” of this constitution is the “freedom of women to obtain an abortion.” Campagne Québec-Vie strongly denounces the inclusion of such a principle, which consecrates the deliberate elimination of an unborn human being as part of Quebec’s foundational identity.

The Quebec City March for Life despite the obstacles
This year, once again, we held the Quebec City March for Life despite all the obstacles that were thrown in our path and despite the rain.

Reflections on the 2025 March for Life in Quebec City
We are often reminded that we live under a so-called "liberal" regime, that is, a system founded upon "fundamental freedoms": freedom of religion, assembly, and expression. In Quebec, this liberalism is supposed to be protected by the Quebec Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms, adopted 50 years ago. Whether or not we agree with all its principles, in theory, we should be living under this rule of law.

Quebec would have 20 million inhabitants today if it had maintained its fertility rate of the 1950s
Without the drop in the fertility rate since the 1960s, Quebec's population would be more than double its current size. The decline in the birth rate since the Quiet Revolution has had a major impact on the province's demographic growth.

Has Quebec passed the million-abortion mark since 1970?
In 1969, abortion was decriminalised in Canada and, that same year, Henry Morgentaler opened an abortion clinic in Montreal, marking the beginning of a barbaric and murderous era in Quebec. Since then, the number of abortions has risen significantly. According to available data, nearly a million abortions have been performed in Quebec over the years!

Practicing Catholic Mark Carney betrays his faith by defending abortion
After attending Catholic Mass, Prime Minister Mark Carney was asked by a reporter if he “explicitly support[s] a woman’s right to choose?” In the lead up to the question, the reporter had observed that Mr. Carney was a “practicing Catholic who went to Church” earlier in the morning.

First birthday for the twins of a mother we helped
In 2024, we were blessed to help between four and five women carry their child to term. Now in 2025, they are celebrating the one-year anniversary of these children. I’ve been invited to two birthday parties. Two of the women we've helped gave birth to twins, one set is pictured below.

The year 2025 has been a busy one, with many battles beginning that herald just as many challenges for the year ahead. Bill 9 is one of the fronts on which we are focusing our efforts. This bill on “strengthening secularism,” introduced in the Quebec National Assembly on November 27th, 2025, threatens the pro-life activism we are currently carrying out in the public square, such as 40 Days for Life, Vigil 365, and the Life Chain, where prayer plays an important role.

We are therefore fighting this secularization of society, not only to defend our rights, but to defend there the place of God and for the salvation of this very society, which is clearly dying from a lack of faith.

To carry out this fight, we have launched a fundraising campaign with a goal of $25,000. Thanks to the generosity of our donors, we have been able to raise $20,115. Thank you very much if you have already donated. However, we are still $4,885 short of our goal. Will you help us reach it?

I'm donating today >>

There is also Bill 1 on the Quebec constitution, tabled on October 9th, which would enshrine the “freedom to have an abortion” and secularism in Quebec's proposed constitution, as well as the inclusion of euthanasia in Quebec's Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms, three elements to which we are opposed on principle and which we are resolutely fighting against.

It is strange to note that feminist groups have decided to fight against the inclusion of abortion in Quebec's constitution, because this, by some mysterious magic, would jeopardize the “right” to abortion. If they manage to make the Legault government back down, so much the better — we won't complain. (In the meantime, it's hilarious to watch!...)

Bill C-9, introduced in the Canadian Parliament on September 19, 2025, in addition to expanding the scope of the “hate speech” law, could be amended to include an amendment from the Bloc Québécois repealing the religious exception to said “hate speech.” According to this exception in the Criminal Code, a person expressing a religious opinion in good faith but which appears to incite hatred against a group could not be convicted.

One might argue that Christians do not need such an exception, but the courts have already abused the hate law, even despite the exception. Take the case of Christian activist Bill Whacott, who was convicted of “hate speech” for calling on homosexuals to repent. Not only did the court reject the distinction between sin and sinner, but it also saw hate speech where there was none and rejected Mr. Whatcott's good faith.

Proof that it is already possible to label proposals that some people dislike as “hate speech,” as the LGBT movement often does when it is criticized. But this would be even worse with the quasi-judicial bodies that C-9 intends to create, which will be held to a lower standard of rigor than ordinary courts and will apply the civil standard of preponderance of probability rather than the criminal standard in a case that nevertheless falls under the Criminal Code.

Other challenges lie ahead, such as organizing the next March for Life in Quebec City, despite the hostility (and hatred!) of pro-abortionists associated with Antifa. Or organizing our first Festi-Vie. All of this requires a considerable investment, and we invite you to give generously to cover the costs of such events.

We are making progress in spreading our message, of course through our emails, which we now send to 13,788 addresses (in French) and 13,511 (in English). Last year, at the same date, we sent 7,319 emails in French and 7,402 emails in English.

We are also making progress on social media, particularly Facebook. Following a change in approach that is better suited to the Facebook audience and algorithms (or somewhere in between), we have seen rapid growth, as shown in the following graph.

The graph in the center shows the “views” statistics.

The graph shows that during this 90-day period, we began to see a jump in the distribution of our content toward the end of September, around the time we launched our new approach. Even the “floor” of the last few days, on either side of the dizzying peak of over 400,000 “views,” is between 20k and 30k, which is significantly higher than the 5k in September before the start of this upheaval.

What does this mean in concrete terms? Firstly, that the debate is not dead, as pro-abortionists like to say, and secondly, that the 144k or so interactions contain, as you might have guessed, a lot of controversy (including comments from pro-abortionists who say that the debate is over, but who paradoxically prove by commenting on our posts that this is not the case). Furthermore, the fact that pro-lifers are publicly displaying their convictions encourages others to do the same, and this in an atmosphere that is not particularly favorable to pro-life discourse.

These results are the fruit of the joint efforts of Georges Buscemi and myself. We plan to improve these results by producing videos on a more regular basis. To do this, will you help us financially?

"In a response to Mr. Buscemi, the minister stated on Patrick Masbourian’s broadcast that 'Quebecers do not want to be intimidated' by anti-abortion groups," reads Le Devoir.

What powerful threat could the president of Qubec Life Coalition have brandished over the “right” to abortion for Minister Simon Jolin-Barrette to raise his honourable person against such an imminent danger?

When questioned by a Le Devoir journalist about his perspective on the possible constitutionalization of abortion, Mr. Buscemi acknowledged that such a law would represent a concrete objective to fight against:

“The only thing is that it adds something concrete, a kind of target to take down, yes,” he said in an interview with Le Devoir. Mr. Buscemi, who compares abortions to “murders,” claims that such an addition to the law “would certainly be another rallying point.”

Georges Buscemi responding in an interview that abortion in the constitution could constitute a concrete target.

That was all it took to fuel feminists’ fears and give them the confirmation they were looking for that constitutionalizing abortion is a bad idea. Strikingly, pro-abortion groups oppose this project, saying it would paradoxically open a breach in the so-called “right.” “It could give us ammunition,” they say, because “we could then challenge this provision in court, creating a target where there was none,” according to 98.5.

Simon Jolin-Barrette, for his part, argues that it is precisely the courts in their current state that represent a danger, not after the constitutionalization of abortion, reports La Presse:

“In his view, courts could very well change their minds and invalidate decisions that currently confirm the right to terminate a pregnancy, hence the need to affirm the State’s obligation to act.”

But, as Mr. Buscemi pointed out, what judge would be willing to rule in our favor (whether there is a constitution or not)? According to Le Devoir:

“Mr. Buscemi, for his part, denies preparing a legal challenge. ‘It’s not like we’re rubbing our hands waiting for abortion to be, like, canonized, made a right enshrined […] in the Constitution,’ he assures. And, anyway, ‘what judge would be receptive to our arguments in 2025?’ he asks.”

This internal struggle among pro-abortion advocates is most peculiar; one would think that enshrining abortion in the constitution would make the practice even more invicible.

But this is where we see that "Claiming to be wise, they became fool" (Romans 1:22). Truly, it seems as though they flee at "the sound of a shaken leaf" (Leviticus 26:36), or tremble "with sudden terror, where there is no cause for terro" (Psalm 53:6).

Who knows what will come out of this hysterical frenzy where they tear each other apart?

And what about our fight for the unborn child?

You see, whether abortion enters the constitution or not, our fight will remain more or less the same: instead of denouncing a state of affairs where the unborn child is protected by no law, we will denounce a state of affairs where the killing of unborn children is encouraged by law.

What is positive about all this media-political agitation is that abortion is being talked about and that we are being publicized. The fact that the media mention us and that a minister must publicly comment on us increases the reach of our voice.

We work tirelessly so that the rights of unborn children are one day recognized and strive to change the culture in Quebec for the long term. For this, we need your help, both active and financial.

Click here to donate to our fundraising campaign.

And our efforts are bearing fruit! 700 people responded to our call to contact their MP to ask for the withdrawal of the project to enshrine abortion in the constitution.

Thanks to your help, our presence continues to grow. Four years ago, we barely had 2 or 3 Life Chains; this year we had about thirty!

Just three years ago, the Quebec March for Life didn’t even exist; thanks to your help, we held our second consecutive march — events that certainly did not go unnoticed!

Four years ago, we might have sent 500 emails outside Quebec; now, we send thousands of emails weekly beyond our borders.

Likewise, just a few months ago, our presence on social media was rather modest. In only three months, we have experienced explosive growth: 2,000 new followers and 3 million views. Hundreds of comments stretch dizzyingly beneath our posts. As a moderator, I see many people defending unborn children and the family with unexpected strength and inspiration.

I tell you, your participation is precious to us, and we invite you to demonstrate (much to some people’s dismay) that the debate on abortion is not over.

I would also ask you to kindly help us financially in our fundraising campaign to continue this essential fight. Unlike all these pro-abortion organizations, we depend entirely on your donations. Our goal is $25,000; we have raised $5,846 so far.

Many thanks for your generosity,

For Life,
Augustin Hamilton
