politicsList of Anti-Choice MPs - 2011
The table includes lists of people who opposed the Order of Canada for abortion-rights crusader Dr Henry Morgantaler; those who supported Bill C-484, the so-called "unborn victims of crime" act; and those who supported Bill C-510, "Roxanne's Law", or an act to make it illegal to coerce a pregnant woman to abort.
(Bill C-484 was ludicrous because under Canadian law killing a fetus by killing the mother wouldn't result in additional jail time, it was just an excuse to work a fetal-personhood law in. Bill C-510 is allegedly about preventing abuse of women, which is, I suppose, why the same government that proposed it keeps cutting funding to abuse prevention programs. Also, reproductive coercion usually goes towards forcing people to get pregnant against their will.)
The first table shows totals of MPs who are anti-choice (from each party), pro-choice, or unknown - with comparisons just after the 2008 election and now.
The second, long table is a list of known anti-choice Members of Parliament as of April 3, 2011.
