"Status Of Women" Against Crisis Pregnancy Centers

SOW bureaucrats paid radical pro-aborts $27,400 for a report discrediting Crisis Pregnancy Centers:
Patricia Maloney's Run with Life is new to the blogosphere, but she has an interesting scoop.

She has discovered, through an Access to Information Request that Status of Women Canada funded Pro-Can to write a report panning CPC's (Crisis Pregnancy Centres).

The grant was for $27 400.

Check out this quote from the application:
[The goal of this project is to] ..publicly expose the anti-woman and anti-feminist agenda of CPCs..
It's about time someone told the feminists that their ideology is not the Gospel truth to what is or is not pro- or anti-women.

Just because they say they are for equality doesn't make them so!
Here's a brief description of the Crisis Pregnancy Centers and their functions. Judge for yourself if these organizations are "anti-woman":
CPCs are organizations that provide support and information to pregnant women who choose to keep their unborn child or decide to give the child up for adoption. These centers are alternatives to abortion clinics, both for the support they provide and for the information they give. These centers don't just help women who choose to give birth, but even those who haven't made a decision yet whether to abort or not. Many of these centers also help women who have already had abortions and are grieving.

Now these centers (CPCs also exist in the US) are under attack as radical feminist organizations try to maintain their any-time, any-reason, publicly funded access to abortion.
So, if Crisis Pregnancy Centers save lives, and abortion destroys lives; why did our government fund these radical feminists, but not crisis pregnancy centres? Patricia Maloney asks that question on her blog. And the answer is - most likely they just didn't notice what exactly they were funding. Just like they didn't notice that one of their "tourism" grants actually went towards funding a perverse "pride" parade in Toronto. It was on the list - a nameless item with some 4- or 5-digit serial number...

That however doesn't mean that we should excuse the respective cabinet minister for failing to notice and block the grant. After all, once the uproar over the $400K grant to a perverse "pride" event in Toronto reached a certain magnitude, a reorganization in some form took place. Next time, when a group from Montreal applied for a similar grant, the grant was rejected. In other words, if we give James Moore the same scolding Diane Ablonczy got last year, we can look forward for the next $27,400 SOW grant to go to an organization that actually saves babies' lives, not to the one that takes them away for the sake of some radical ideology.
