Every day this man remains the Prime minister of Canada is a shameful one. The latest outrage is the stated opposition to fund any maternal health projects that include abortion. This is how they announce their participation in a G8 initiative to improve the maternal health of women in developing countries.

Today in Parliment he did not, in stated terms, defend his stance. Instead, he ducked questions leaving members of the opposition somewhat surprised and confused as the issue is not abortion but trying to lend assistance to women who've been victimized by war, rape and poverty.
