Pierre Elliot Trudeau's Great Betrayal

In Canada, abortion, at any time during a pregnancy was made a felony in 1841. The legal prohibition of abortion was included in the Canadian Criminal Code when it was passed in 1892. There were several slight rewordings of the code provisions prohibiting abortion in 1906, 1927 and again in 1954. However, from 1969 to 1982, dramatic changes took place. A great betrayal of the Christian principles upon which Canada was founded took place. The Liberals, under Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, passed an Omnibus Bill in 1969 legalizing abortion under certain conditions. Again under Trudeau, another negative milestone was reached when the Liberal government passed the Charter of Rights in 1982. This constitutional change led to the Supreme Court of Canada removing all protection from the unborn and allowed abortion on demand, up to, during, and after the birth of the child. This study is about those who knew what was happening and who fought to stop it.
