March For Life Ottawa
May 14, 1969, fifty-three years ago, Canada's day of infamy resulted in at least 4 million "legal" abortions to date
Dear Friends,
You may recall from my last newsletter that yesterday evening there was a "meet and greet" with Spencer Ford, the Durham candidate for the New Blue Party, which took place at Protection of the Mother of God Catholic Church in Oshawa. I took Fr. Stephen’s suggestion to heart and went along to meet Spencer and ask him some “hard” pro-life questions! I was also curious about the New Blue party and thought this would be a great opportunity to get a little first hand information.
I found Spencer to be a very capable and enthusiastic candidate. He has a law enforcement background and certainly seems to be extremely well informed about our current political state (crisis) in Canada, especially as it relates to all things to do with The Great Reset (which is pretty much everything these days!). I got the impression that he is an excellent investigator and researcher. He was a very articulate and interesting speaker and I would guess that most of the folks at the meeting were impressed with him. He’s got that natural political and people-oriented bent to his personality. Most importantly I judged him to be a man of genuine good will who is really interested—even determined—to step up to the plate and do his part to rescue Canada from what he sees as a very bleak future.
As regards his pro-life credentials, he was not backward in saying that he was pro-life but, then again, most politicians are looking for all the votes they can get and too easily will say everything necessary to their audience to gain those votes. I asked him a number of direct and probing questions on the subject of pro-life and it was clear that he was not expressly pro-life in the sense of having any past affiliation with pro-life groups or personal involvement in public pro-life demonstrations, even the better known events such as the Life Chain or March for Life. However, he seemed to answer the questions as directly (no BS) and honestly as he could and answered unequivocally “No” when asked whether there ought to be any exceptions for abortion for rape, incest or (so-called) life of the mother. I would characterize Spencer as sincere and substantially pro-life but he needs education in right to life issues and a bit of street experience.
After the session was over I got a chance to shake hands with him, thanked him for his answers and told him I would pray for him. I also gave him the best pro-life pamphlet I had and suggested he take the time to look it over carefully.
Would I vote for him? (Technically I can’t because I don’t live in his riding.) Normally I wouldn’t vote for anyone who didn’t have solid pro-life credentials but under the current dire political circumstances I might take a chance with this guy and the New Blue party. As far as I can see they are the only serious party with a common sense platform that could potentially displace Ford in the upcoming election. Take a look at the chart below for some interesting numbers.

SAINT OF THE DAY
The Catholic Church remembers St. Damien of Molokai on May 10. The Belgian priest sacrificed his life and health to become a spiritual father to the victims of leprosy quarantined on a Hawaiian island.

A newly found Maryland site provides interesting clues about the lives of Catholic colonists. Life for Catholics in colonial Maryland was difficult. In 1704, the Maryland Legislature passed the “Act to Prevent the Growth of Popery,” which banned Catholics from voting or holding office. Catholics were also ordered to worship only in their homes. Catholics in the area began building “Mass rooms” in their homes.
