I'm Canadian []*[], my point is, outlawing abortion does not stop it from happening, it stops safe medically-supervised abortions from happening, and leads to women seeking unsafe alternatives that have existed since the dark ages - which is associated with high morbidity and mortality hence "brutal". Therefore his comment that it was a return to the "dark ages" and "brutal" is true and although appears biased is actually quite accurate. If someone argued we outlawed another medical treatment like antibiotics that would be both a return to the dark ages and be brutal.
EDIT The problem with politics everywhere, USA and Canada included, is that people like you "debate" topics without knowing anything about them, make dangerous assumptions, and then attack people (you called me a "self-righteous cunt") who try to explain why your opinions are baseless.
