As I look around and see the changes being wrought on societies around the world, I am reminded of the ancient Chinese farewell, “May you live in interesting times.” We certainly are.
You will note from this issue of REALITY some of the challenges that we are facing here in Canada. We have the media manufacturing news not just reporting it; the UN seeking ever more power to direct, control and tax sovereign nations; more than 100,000 Canadian babies being killed every year by abortion in the name of women’s “choice”, and the relationship of two consenting adults regardless of gender, being recognized in law as being married. It all seems so incomprehensible.
However, despite the challenges that these issues are creating, we have a responsibility to do what we can to change the outcome of them.
In some ways, it is a privilege to be involved in these challenges, as history will show that there were those in Canada who did not blindly accept these tragic events, but, instead, struggled against them.
At the time I am writing this, we do not know when the next federal election will be called. When the election is held, it will be a very crucial one. It is very important that we have men and women elected to Parliament who will vote firmly on principle, not according to the whims of the party leader and their political career. Please cast your vote for the individual candidate based on his/her values, and the candidate’s readiness to support the pro-life/pro-family cause.
REAL Women will continue as always to deal with the issues as they come along, but we do need strong members of Parliament with whom we can continue to work.
Till next time!
