Bubble Zone Legislation Bill 8

The Manitoba government recently introduced a private member's bill (bill 8 - the "safe access to abortion services act"), that would establish 50 to 150 metre zones on public streets, sidewalks, and areas around abortion facilities. 

The bill aims to make it illegal to inform women about abortion alternatives and side effects, and to peacefully pray outside abortion facilities. In these censored zones, a martial law will be enforced to eliminate freedom of speech where it may have the most important life-saving impact. If the bill is passed, "attempting to influence or inform" a woman to choose life for her baby, a person may be charged with time in prison or large fines.

To ensure continued freedom of speech and, most importantly, for the sake of unborn lives, please encourage your MLA to vote against Bill 8.
