“Canada’s highest honour has been diminished. Henry Morgentaler has been awarded the Order of Canada. We are all diminished. A community’s worth is measured in the way it treats the most vulnerable, and no one is more vulnerable than in the first nine months of life’s journey. No person may presume to judge the soul of Henry Morgentaler, but it cannot be denied that the effect of his life’s work has been a deadly assault upon the most helpless amongst us” - excerpts from a letter by Archbishop Thomas Collins, on the Order of Canada nomination for Henry Morgentaler. We urge people of good will to contact the Prime Minister, the Governor General and their respective MP’s so that Mr. Morgentaler’s nomination can be taken back. This Sunday will be a day of special prayer in the Archdiocese of Toronto for an end to the evil of abortion.
