Conservatives introduce 'coerced abortion' bill

A true private member's bill, or not, they now own it.

Rod Bruinooge, chair of the all-party pro-life caucus in Parliament, wants it to be a crime to coerce a woman to have an abortion.

Apparently, however, the Conservatives don't want it to be a crime to coerce a woman to not have one.

And... the abortion debate seems to be back on the table, eh?

Liberals collaborate with separatists to try to take the government down!

LOL. Just saying. With times being what they are, why not make the spurious accusation before someone else does?

So Harper survived the confidence vote. No surprise. I'm sure the Liberals are relieved.

The NDP saved the day by abstaining. Well, there's a page out of Dion's handbook.

What's the real spin out of this? "The NDP did not stand opposed to Harper's climate change policies"?

Oh, Liberal Denis Coderre skipped the vote. The sour grapes continue? Ironically, I'm sure the fading Liberal fortunes in Quebec helped the Bloc vote with the Liberals.

I hope we have an election soon and I hope there's a majority, even if its Harper. This minority goverment crap is making mincemeat out of our institutions (yes, I know Harper will), and a four year hiatus from this ongoing partisan insanity would give some parties time to reflect and rebuild.
