Women in Canada Entitled to Taxpayer-Funded Abortions Judge Says

Winnipeg, Canada (LifeNews.com) – A Canadian judge says women who obtained abortions that were not paid for at taxpayer expense are entitled to compensation from the government. The judge ruled that two women should have had their abortions paid for with tax money.
A Court of Queen’s Bench judge ruled last week that the funding system in place in the province of Manitoba violated the rights of women by not paying for their abortions.

Justice Jeffrey Oliphant ruled that the province must pay for all so-called medically necessary abortions and women who paid for such abortions on their own in the past should be able to obtain refunds.

Earlier this year, but after the woman obtained their abortions, Manitoba changed its policy that previously allowed funding only in cases where such abortion occurred in a public hospital.

The two women in the case each tried to obtain taxpayer-funded abortions but faced significant delays, according to a CBC News report.

Because they felt the delays would cause health problems, they paid for abortions on their own at private abortion businesses.

“Paying for an abortion service at a private clinic is now deemed to have been wrong and they have a remedy, they can seek compensation for that,” Chris Wullum, the women’s attorney, told the CBC.

Manitoba officials plan to look at the ruling but have not decided if they will appeal. Health Minister Tim Sale says the provincial government has one year to make its decision.

This on the heels of Canada hesitating to send its Disaster Assistance Relief Team (DART) to Asia to help with the Tsunami disaster because it may be too costly.

Yep! They need it to kill babies. :mad:
 
According to cbc.ca/news/background/cdnmilitary/dart.html the DART team has rushed in to help.
The Canadian government has also pledged at least $40 million (Canadian…so more like USD$30 million I’d guess)…possible more, as $25 million is based on private donations, which the goverment will match. $10 million (so USD$7-8) has also been donated by the provincial goverments of Alberta and Ontario.
Of course these figures are small compared to that pledged by the US government…but our population is much smaller.
 
Seems like some people never learn a lesson from disasters wherever they occur in the world.
Abortion will draw down the wrath of God on the world, some have chosen fire over water, darkness over light.
God have mercy on the little babies, it’s the most henious crime.
We shouldn’t be shocked at a massive earthquake, and then sit in docility at the murder of babies.
I’m not saying anyone on this forum is pro-abortion, I’m just venting my anger here.:mad:
 
Is this for all of Canada or just Manitoba?!

I knew they were doing this, I KNEW it… :mad: We have ZERO control. ZERO.

I’m sorry, I know this is very un-Catholic of me, but I HATE these people! :mad: They’re FORCING us to KILL with OUR OWN money. And we can’t do a THING! AGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

sigh I need to vent, sorry… Please don’t ban me… 😦

Could you have a class action suit against your government for forcing you to kill? I am serious. Any Canadian lawyers on the forum?

Could be a good idea but we Canadians are not big on lawsuits. Besides, has it ever been tried successfully anywhere else?
 
Noticed they used the word “ENTITLED”!:banghead: So women aree now entitled to kill their children:mad: I am already beside myself that the government gives money to places like planned parenthood:mad: Our President is working on this though:D If all these abortion advocates keep pushing for tax money to be used for murder, maybe the Christians should threaten to not pay taxes because of the blatent attack on our right to follow our religious conscience:mad: It would not last long then.God Bless
 
Here, where I live in the US, our state funds abortions through the Medical Assistance program. It is one of my biggest sorrows. I’m fighting back, not by NOT paying taxes, but by counseling women against abortion at a prolife crisis pregnancy center. If they don’t go to abortion mills, the abortionists will have to close their doors. I know, I know…I’m like the small boy who was throwing starfish back into the sea, after millions had washed to shore. When someone asked him why he was doing that because he wouldn’t be able to save them all, he said that at least he could save the ones he threw back.
 
Health care is a shared responsibility between the federal and provincial governments…so while this decree, it seems, is applicable only to Manitoba, some of Manitoba’s health care funding comes from federal grants. (Meaning that all Canadians in some way contribute).
