Women don't need abortion. Women need the financial, educational, moral, spiritual, and emotional support to raise the child they conceived. We have to eliminate abortion but the only way that's going to happen is if we can provide the services needed to help mothers in their time of need. More government funding towards schools designed for women who have children while they're still in highschool, support of family and friends and making them feel like this can be a wonderfull new beginning.

That is the best comment I have ever received on the subject. Thank you!

[kruszer]

I don't quite get the stats... of the ones who commented does this mean that 1 in 3 are for abortion, 1 in 3 against and 1 in 3 are unsure? Where does the 7% fall in? 7% of people interviewed are for abortion?

[AbortedArtist]

The stats are hints but kept cryptic for the contest

Of those polled in Vancouver there were 7% more FOR than those who were AGAINST ABORTION. Percentage wise there were more than 1 in 3 with RESERVATIONS: undecided, circumstantial only, wanted restrictions...

I am finding this very interesting. Good luck on the next part of your journey. Are you planning on trying to have this aired on CBC or something or where do you see it going?

[AbortedArtist]

Hi Elly,

Thanks! And thank you for asking. I think a condensed 'best of 'A' Word On The Street might air well on CBC if they'll go for it.

This series came out of and is leading up to my larger feature documentary > Aborted Artist < on my journey through the abortion debate.

Medical "waste" i.e. stem cells, embilical cord blood should not be a $ product either as it adds a cash incentive in some ways and make abortion an industry. Growth hormones from sheep in Sweden? really?.

The protesters that picket should adress the United Churches role in the death of aboriginal Canadians before the judge others beliefs. If religion can't clean it's evil then who are they to demand or guilt influence scared young women.

[DIGIBOYTV]

The fact the governor general can close parliment these people should be more concerned with who has stolen the country and it's values. This is a distraction tactic issue, Obama is funding abortion via planned parenthood and other private groups in US and Africa.

Its all about defining when a human life starts. I don't think many people would argue that killing a zygote is murder. Conversely, I don't think many people would argue that a 9 month fetus is not human.

yup. the catholic folks in my slum view the pope and cardinal roger mahoney as the eimmissaries of god, and therefore infallible. they think that the use of contraception/birth control/abortion means a one way ticket to hell. with all these unwanted kids running around crime is rapant, lots of murders. 2 weeks ago there were TWO DOUBLE homicides, occurring minutes of each other, within a mile of my house

enticle says.. hardly any French people throughout Canada. Most of the French people reside in Quebec. Though if we're going on about races. French & Canadian are not "races". you said..There is way to many fucking asains and packies invading Canada. They migrate in groups and take over areas. Come to Florida and see the Mexican's take over.
