Equal treatment for non-religious refugees in Canada
Support of atheists threatened by religious extremists and fundamentalist governments in other countries. These atheists desperately need asylum in Canada because of the imminent threat of serious injury, imprisonment or death.
Reproductive Health is part of health care
Demand that the Manitoba government stop offloading reproductive health issues onto the Minister for Status of Women, who has no authority in this area. The Health Minister is responsible for healthcare delivery and funding.
More information about both of these issues is in our March Newsletter.
