It was Day who bravely stood up and opposed the Supreme Court s ludicrous decision to include sexual orientation under the Human Rights Code in the wake of the Vriend decision. Then the federal election call came, and Day seemed to forget what he stood for. He attempted to hide from his past and to water down his views. He shied away from his pro-life beliefs and dared to suggest that whether the murder of infants ought to remain legal should be left up to referendum. Day must have been crazy to believe that he could win this election solely on the basis of economic issues.

If you have any doubts about this, simply consider that last year alone was witness to the brutal slaughter of almost two million unborn children.
