ATTENTION, SEMINARIANS:

Apply now to attend The Seminarians' Pro-Life Congress 2012, August 27-31, Ancaster, Ontario. A similar Congress held in 2010 was so successful that it commanded a repeat performance (see details of the 2010 event here!).

Seminarians from across Canada will gather in friendship and sharing to learn and discuss one of the most important topics of today - the Culture of Life. Funds are available to assist with some or all costs to attend - no seminarian will turned away due to a lack of funds.

Euthanasia Petition: The British Columbia Civil Liberties Association has challenged the Attorney General of Canada to discard Canada's protections from euthanasia and assisted suicide. In Carter v. Canada, the BCCLA has asked the court to legalize "the administration of medication or other treatment that intentionally brings about a patient's death by the act of a medical practitioner". If accepted by the courts, this definition would clearly legalize euthanasia.

We strongly encourage you to sign and distribute the following petition prepared by the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition. See: Euthanasia Prevention Coalition.
