(LifeSiteNews) — The Trudeau government’s desire to strip pro-life organizations of their charitable status may be linked to the lobbying of a pro-abortion group.
According to the Canadian Registry of Lobbyists, as first reported by pro-lifer Patricia Mahoney, Abortion Rights Coalition of Canada (ARCC) director Joyce Arthur has urged numerous government agencies to restrict pro-life activism by stripping pro-life groups of their charitable status, an action the Trudeau government proposed taking before Parliament was prorogued earlier this year.
Arthur’s radical suggestion, which would put many pro-life pregnancy centers out of business, was sent to several government agencies, including the Canada Revenue Agency, Finance Canada, Health Canada, the House of Commons, and the Prime Minister’s Office.
Campaign Life Coalition’s Pete Baklinski responded to Arthur’s lobbying, noting that the ARCC “has been spreading misinformation about pro-life pregnancy centres for years.”
