I apologize if this has been posted already; I didn't see it on the Morgentaler thread. I wanted to post this separately hoping that people will see it and sign a.s.a.p. if you choose to do so. Thank you!
Please review and sign the petition above as soon as possible. It concerns the University of Western Ontario's proposal to honour Dr. Henry Morgentaler (longtime women's reproductive rights activist) in 2 weeks and the fierce opposition to the award by religious anti-choice groups. As the opposition (mostly in the U.S for some reason!) has now amassed over 10,000 signatures on their own petition, speed is of the essence for this one. If you could forward this petition to as many people and groups as possible, we will increase our chances of fending off the attack from the anti-choice opposition and allow Dr. Morgentaler to receive the tribute.
