Families of Victims Pleased that Unborn Victims of Crime Act Will Come to a Vote in Canada's Parliament

...Such legislation is also supported across party lines: 77% of Conservative supporters, 71% of Liberal, 71% of the Bloc Quebecois, 67% of the Green Party, and 66% of the NDP supporters are in favour of "legislation making it a separate crime to injure or kill a foetus during an attack on the mother."

It's a small step, anyway. :thumb:

I heard about that too, Tuck!

It is a terrific small step!

Here's hoping it goes through.
