Juno News - Pro-lifers gearing up for Conservative convention

00:00:00.000 This weekend, the Conservative Party of Canada is having a virtual convention.

00:00:16.200 Normally these are very big to-dos, policy conventions that bring in people from around the country.

00:00:21.420 They vote on various resolutions, amendments to party policy,

00:00:25.280 and they can become battlegrounds in a lot of cases for what the grassroots of the party thinks

00:00:31.400 and what they want on certain key issues.

00:00:34.040 And one area where we always see this unfold is the battle between social conservatives

00:00:39.180 and pro-life members of the party,

00:00:41.260 and oftentimes those who don't want those people to have a say in party policy.

00:00:46.460 If you look at the convention this weekend,

00:00:48.920 34 of 196 ideas submitted by the party's riding associations

00:00:54.100 will make it to the floor for debate,

00:00:56.360 and none of those are on abortion,

00:00:59.120 despite a very significant effort from pro-life groups and individuals.

00:01:03.300 I want to talk about this with Scott Hayward,

00:01:05.440 who is the co-founder of Right Now and joins me on the line.

00:01:09.040 Scott, good to talk to you again.

00:01:10.040 Thanks for coming back on the show.

00:01:11.960 Thanks, Andrew.

00:01:12.500 It's always great to be on your show, and thanks for the invitation.

00:01:14.880 Now, people that aren't members of the Conservative Party or a political party

00:01:19.100 or people who have never participated in this process might not know,

00:01:23.060 but the party policy, what is that?

00:01:26.160 So the party policy document is a document that is utilized by most political parties

00:01:31.660 in this country, and it's more or less the official stance of that political party

00:01:35.960 on a variety of issues, whether it be the environment or foreign affairs

00:01:39.460 or economy, crime, things of this nature.

00:01:42.040 So the Conservative Party of Canada, like you mentioned,

00:01:44.560 is having their biannual, so every two years,

00:01:47.340 their policy convention coming up later this week.

00:01:49.640 And how does it differ from the platform?

00:01:54.240 So the platform is put together by the leader, by the caucus, by party staff,

00:02:00.400 as the platform going into an election campaign on specifically

00:02:04.600 what a political party intends to do should they form government after the election.

00:02:09.300 Most political parties will establish their platform based off of the official party policy

00:02:15.360 document we just discussed, which is voted on and proposed by members of the party

00:02:20.180 about once every two years by most political parties.

00:02:22.920 So what's happening this weekend for the Conservative Party of Canada

00:02:26.500 and next weekend for the Liberal Party of Canada

00:02:28.660 is going to be informative for both political parties

00:02:31.720 as we likely are going into an election sometime later this spring.

00:02:35.640 So you've answered the next question I had, which was why this matters.

00:02:39.060 So I'll skip ahead to the question after that, which is that why are these such battlegrounds

00:02:45.300 and how have we seen that battle manifest for social conservatives and pro-lifers

00:02:49.560 specifically leading up to this convention?

00:02:52.620 So it's important that various constituents within political parties

00:02:58.600 are able to express their views, their values,

00:03:01.240 and want to see that reflected within both the party platform,

00:03:05.240 but also the party policy document, which of course informs the platform.

00:03:09.080 So within the Conservative Party of Canada,

00:03:11.120 you have a variety of different types of conservatives.

00:03:13.280 You have Western Canadian conservatives

00:03:16.160 who are very focused on national resource development.

00:03:19.500 You have democratic conservatives

00:03:21.120 who are focused on making sure that grassroots are heard

00:03:25.100 regardless of a variety of views.

00:03:26.720 You have libertarians, you have red Tories,

00:03:29.260 and then you have pro-lifers and social conservatives in general.

00:03:32.240 So everyone gets to get involved in this process

00:03:35.400 within the Conservative Party of Canada,

00:03:37.320 bring up different policy ideas that are voted on by EDA.

00:03:41.420 Those are Electoral District Association Board of Directors.

00:03:43.940 There's one in each of the 338 ridings.

00:03:46.620 And then they're submitted for the Conservative Party of Canada,

00:03:49.360 at least on a thing called Ideas Lab,

00:03:51.520 where each EDA is allowed 25 votes

00:03:54.840 to vote amongst the various policy proposals.

00:03:58.200 So this time around, like you mentioned,

00:03:59.580 there were 196 policy proposals.

00:04:02.140 The EDAs got to vote,

00:04:03.460 and then the 34 that are being voted on and debated

00:04:06.860 later this week were the 34 most popular across the country.

00:04:11.140 I should say, by the way,

00:04:12.440 that Schoolhouse Rock has absolutely nothing on you

00:04:14.860 and how well you can describe

00:04:16.340 and clearly articulate these complex matters,

00:04:19.700 which people may find uninteresting,

00:04:21.660 but are actually very significant

00:04:22.960 to people in the Conservative movement in Canada,

00:04:25.640 and I'd say in the country more broadly.

00:04:28.240 So let me ask you about this,

00:04:29.740 because I've seen a lot of people circulating stories

00:04:32.160 about the fact that none of the pro-life amendments

00:04:34.860 or resolutions made it on there.

00:04:36.700 This is just because they lost in a vote.

00:04:39.200 It's not because there was someone

00:04:40.240 that handpicked these resolutions

00:04:42.120 and said,

00:04:42.620 we don't want that one on the convention floor, correct?

00:04:45.780 That's a great question, Andrew,

00:04:47.480 and it's something that I've heard

00:04:48.520 and seen a lot within the past week or so.

00:04:52.220 You know, that used to be the policy process

00:04:54.900 within the Conservative Party of Canada.

00:04:56.640 EDAs would come up with party policies

00:04:58.600 and they would go to a secretive convention committee,

00:05:01.780 and that committee,

00:05:02.640 which was more or less appointed,

00:05:04.560 got to decide, you know,

00:05:05.800 which policies would make it

00:05:07.440 to the convention breakout rooms

00:05:09.160 and then, of course, to the convention floor.

00:05:10.780 Over the past number of years,

00:05:13.100 within the Conservative Party of Canada,

00:05:14.740 we've seen a devolution

00:05:16.160 toward the grassroots within the party.

00:05:20.380 So now the process is

00:05:21.960 that EDAs put it on an internal website

00:05:25.480 called the Ideas Lab and cast a vote.

00:05:27.520 So it's much more grassroots this time around

00:05:29.820 than it was, let's say, 10 years ago.

00:05:31.780 This time around,

00:05:32.740 we proposed two pro-life policies.

00:05:34.820 One was to eliminate the only pro-abortion policy

00:05:37.660 in the Conservative Party of Canada policy declaration

00:05:40.040 that's currently Article 70

00:05:41.960 that says a Conservative government

00:05:43.540 will not support legislation to regulate abortion.

00:05:47.480 And then we had a second policy proposed

00:05:49.300 from the rotting of Burlington within the GTA

00:05:51.900 that asked that a future Conservative government

00:05:54.840 would seek to introduce and vote for

00:05:58.360 and support legislation

00:05:59.480 that would legally restrict

00:06:01.320 sex-selective and late-term abortions.

00:06:03.800 You know, in Canada,

00:06:05.080 according to recent polls

00:06:06.400 within the past 12 months or so,

00:06:08.020 something like 84% of Canadians

00:06:10.020 support legal restrictions

00:06:11.680 on sex-selective abortions

00:06:13.080 and up to 70%,

00:06:14.380 including 60% in Ontario

00:06:16.260 and 67% in Quebec,

00:06:18.020 support late-term abortion restrictions.

00:06:20.840 Canada, as most of your viewers

00:06:22.380 would probably know,

00:06:23.320 is one of only two countries in the world

00:06:24.820 where there's absolutely no law

00:06:26.680 whatsoever on abortion.

00:06:27.820 So these were the two policies

00:06:28.840 that we put forward.

00:06:30.140 They were voted on by the EDAs.

00:06:32.060 Our initial...

00:06:33.080 And these new rules were known

00:06:34.820 months ago, by the way, Andrew.

00:06:36.460 Like, they were established months ago

00:06:37.940 by the Convention Committee,

00:06:39.380 by the National Policy Committee

00:06:40.800 and National Constitution Committee

00:06:42.320 and National Councils.

00:06:44.120 Those three organs

00:06:45.120 all being voted on

00:06:46.120 by members of the party.

00:06:47.840 And so we knew the rules

00:06:48.800 going into Christmas.

00:06:50.140 So we knew it was going to be tough,

00:06:51.740 but we had an opportunity

00:06:53.100 and we knew kind of

00:06:54.220 what the pathway was.

00:06:55.040 So our goal was

00:06:56.000 to get 45 EDA votes

00:06:58.100 for both of those pro-life policies.

00:06:59.500 And we blew past them.

00:07:00.980 I was actually shocked

00:07:01.780 at how many votes we got.

00:07:02.760 We got 63 for Delete 70

00:07:04.460 and we got around 55

00:07:06.200 for the late-term abortion one.

00:07:08.580 As a comparison,

00:07:09.600 last time in Halifax

00:07:10.840 for that convention in 2018,

00:07:12.620 we only got about maybe 25.

00:07:15.520 I don't even think we got up to 30

00:07:16.800 for the Delete 71

00:07:18.220 and that one didn't make it

00:07:19.220 to the convention floor.

00:07:20.340 So this time,

00:07:20.880 the bar was a little higher.

00:07:22.440 And there was no dirty tricks

00:07:24.680 or nasty tricks,

00:07:25.680 as some other organizations say,

00:07:27.640 by the political party.

00:07:28.640 It was simply

00:07:29.200 that pro-lifers

00:07:30.500 have not yet taken

00:07:31.900 their rightful place

00:07:32.880 on those EDA board of directors,

00:07:34.840 something that we're looking to

00:07:36.160 fix within the coming

00:07:38.340 weeks and months.

00:07:39.600 One last thing I will say

00:07:40.560 is that there was an extreme,

00:07:42.160 I would describe it

00:07:43.100 as extreme pro-abortion policy

00:07:44.680 proposed by one of the EDAs

00:07:46.520 that made the current

00:07:47.720 pro-abortion policy

00:07:49.160 even worse from our perspective.

00:07:51.080 That one didn't do so

00:07:51.860 hot on Ideas Lab.

00:07:52.920 I only got about 10 EDA votes or so,

00:07:55.300 but there were a couple

00:07:56.120 EDA boards of directors

00:07:57.560 who voted for that policy,

00:07:59.840 yet their slate of delegates

00:08:01.560 to the convention

00:08:02.300 is 100% pro-life.

00:08:04.080 So there's a big disconnect

00:08:05.420 between those who sit

00:08:06.400 on the EDA boards

00:08:07.360 and the actual members

00:08:08.640 of the party

00:08:09.580 within that riding.

00:08:11.520 And so we're looking

00:08:12.140 for the next AGMs

00:08:14.060 within the next 12 to 8 months

00:08:15.540 or probably 8 to 12 months

00:08:17.000 to correct that disconnect,

00:08:19.380 if you will.

00:08:20.620 You mentioned something in there

00:08:21.820 that I found interesting.

00:08:23.420 You said they're not dirty tricks.

00:08:24.800 The pro-lifers

00:08:25.500 were effectively outmaneuvered,

00:08:27.740 and I don't mean that

00:08:28.520 in a cynical way,

00:08:29.480 but just they didn't have

00:08:30.440 the votes on this.

00:08:31.580 Do you feel that there is

00:08:32.920 an issue with pro-lifers

00:08:34.580 not wanting to engage?

00:08:36.320 Either they don't think

00:08:37.440 it's worth it

00:08:38.040 or they're fed up

00:08:38.700 with either the political process

00:08:40.400 or more specifically

00:08:41.780 the Conservative Party,

00:08:42.920 or do you think it is

00:08:43.940 just that they are

00:08:44.580 a smaller share of the party

00:08:46.480 than they used to be?

00:08:48.140 I don't think

00:08:48.800 we're a smaller share

00:08:49.600 of the party.

00:08:50.520 I think, if anything,

00:08:51.300 we're actually

00:08:51.640 a growing share of the party.

00:08:52.820 If you look at the number

00:08:53.580 of candidates

00:08:54.580 who had won the nominations

00:08:56.760 for the 2019 election,

00:08:58.880 the number of pro-lifers

00:09:00.920 who were elected

00:09:01.560 for the Conservative Party

00:09:02.680 of Canada

00:09:03.160 amongst the new members

00:09:04.980 of Parliament

00:09:05.400 who were elected

00:09:05.980 to the House of Commons

00:09:06.960 in the last election,

00:09:08.400 the last two leadership races.

00:09:10.920 Just on that point,

00:09:12.080 I mean,

00:09:12.200 the leadership factor

00:09:13.120 is significant.

00:09:14.020 Both Aaron O'Toole

00:09:14.760 and Andrew Scheer

00:09:15.880 demonstrably,

00:09:17.580 you can see in the numbers,

00:09:18.560 were pushed to victory

00:09:19.340 by pro-lifers

00:09:20.960 and by social conservatives.

00:09:22.480 So I guess,

00:09:22.920 why is that not translating

00:09:24.120 to the policy process?

00:09:26.640 It's a good question.

00:09:27.700 So as time goes on,

00:09:29.420 more or less,

00:09:30.680 the actual necessary work

00:09:34.080 within the political sphere

00:09:35.160 in Canada

00:09:35.600 for the pro-life movement

00:09:36.620 has more or less been neglected,

00:09:41.240 I would say,

00:09:41.660 for the last 40 or so years.

00:09:43.340 So since we started

00:09:44.580 in 2016,

00:09:46.400 just over five years ago,

00:09:47.720 it's been our job

00:09:49.040 over the last five years

00:09:49.960 to get pro-lifers

00:09:50.880 more involved in the process

00:09:52.040 because we have the numbers.

00:09:53.660 It's simply that they're not involved

00:09:55.160 within the process.

00:09:56.360 They're not informed

00:09:57.380 and they don't quite know

00:09:59.500 what to do

00:10:00.100 in order to make sure

00:10:01.040 that their voices are heard

00:10:02.280 within the right structures

00:10:03.580 of, for example,

00:10:04.840 the Conservative Party of Canada

00:10:06.100 and eventually as we grow

00:10:07.320 within other political parties

00:10:08.560 as well.

00:10:09.500 So, you know,

00:10:10.660 like I said,

00:10:11.220 last time around,

00:10:11.980 we only had about 25

00:10:13.160 or 30 EDA votes

00:10:14.520 for our pro-life policies.

00:10:15.880 This time,

00:10:16.320 we more than doubled it

00:10:17.200 and in some cases tripled.

00:10:18.480 Still quite isn't enough.

00:10:20.040 We know which EDAs

00:10:21.240 where we need to get pro-lifers

00:10:23.320 to make sure

00:10:23.880 that they are properly represented

00:10:25.580 on those board of directors.

00:10:27.040 And we're finding that

00:10:27.860 through this process

00:10:28.720 because for our organization,

00:10:31.680 and I might as well

00:10:32.120 just tell you now

00:10:32.840 because it's already baked in,

00:10:34.940 there's about 4,000 delegates

00:10:36.340 that are attending

00:10:36.820 this convention.

00:10:37.940 And from our analysis

00:10:39.460 within our database,

00:10:40.540 about one out of every four

00:10:42.160 of those delegates

00:10:42.800 comes from our right now database.

00:10:45.520 That's a huge, huge number.

00:10:47.440 Right off the bat,

00:10:48.180 we have 25% of the delegates

00:10:49.860 being from right now.

00:10:51.720 And there are other

00:10:52.140 pro-life organizations

00:10:53.120 that are getting delegates there.

00:10:54.380 There are people within the party

00:10:55.820 who are attending the convention

00:10:56.980 who might not be

00:10:57.680 in any of the databases

00:10:58.600 or just naturally pro-life.

00:11:00.300 So I would say like

00:11:01.120 in terms of the delegates

00:11:02.340 at this convention,

00:11:03.240 probably well over half

00:11:04.660 right across the country

00:11:05.620 are somewhere

00:11:07.020 on the pro-life spectrum.

00:11:08.140 So it's just a matter

00:11:09.280 of we keep going forward,

00:11:10.740 we keep informing pro-lifers

00:11:11.980 of what they need to do.

00:11:12.860 And to be frank,

00:11:13.840 they're starting to step up.

00:11:15.060 A lot of pro-lifers

00:11:15.880 have told me,

00:11:16.620 delegates saying,

00:11:17.920 you know,

00:11:18.300 who's,

00:11:19.100 what's this EDA?

00:11:20.060 You know,

00:11:20.180 what's this policy committee?

00:11:21.360 And how can I be a part of it?

00:11:22.760 And how can my friends

00:11:23.520 be a part of it?

00:11:24.460 And that's really great.

00:11:25.320 So the next 8 to 12 months

00:11:26.440 are going to be really exciting

00:11:27.440 for us in the pro-life movement

00:11:28.620 as we take that next step

00:11:30.340 as we mature

00:11:31.020 within the Conservative Party of Canada

00:11:33.040 and take our rightful place.

00:11:35.100 Now, I know

00:11:35.360 every virtual event

00:11:36.360 is a bit wacky

00:11:37.560 in how it's formatted,

00:11:38.700 but is there going to be

00:11:39.380 an opportunity for

00:11:40.400 emotions from the floor

00:11:42.240 at this convention

00:11:43.180 as there have been

00:11:44.000 at in-person conventions

00:11:45.000 in the past?

00:11:46.700 Well, since the formation

00:11:47.720 of the Conservative Party of Canada,

00:11:49.560 which was an amalgamation

00:11:50.620 between, of course,

00:11:51.380 the Canadian Alliance

00:11:52.220 and the Progressive Conservative Party

00:11:53.520 of Canada,

00:11:54.440 within the Constitution,

00:11:55.500 there is no opportunity

00:11:56.420 for emotions from the floor.

00:11:58.360 That used to be something

00:11:59.260 that used to be

00:11:59.760 within the Reform Party.

00:12:01.000 I can't remember

00:12:01.540 if it was in the Canadian Alliance

00:12:02.740 or not.

00:12:03.060 Yeah, and it's big

00:12:03.440 in the Ontario PC Party,

00:12:05.300 too, I know.

00:12:06.620 Yeah, yeah.

00:12:07.320 So within the federal party,

00:12:08.580 that has never been

00:12:09.500 something that's been allowed.

00:12:11.180 To be frank,

00:12:12.140 I think it's reasonable

00:12:13.060 because the process

00:12:15.000 to get to convention,

00:12:16.280 whether it be

00:12:16.580 constitutional amendments

00:12:17.660 or National Council candidates

00:12:19.100 or even policy proposals,

00:12:22.060 is relatively grassroots

00:12:23.600 within the Conservative Party

00:12:24.800 of Canada.

00:12:25.340 So I think it's reasonable

00:12:26.160 that once you get

00:12:27.080 to convention,

00:12:28.020 you focus on the things

00:12:29.120 that actually made it

00:12:30.040 to convention

00:12:30.560 because otherwise,

00:12:32.820 you know,

00:12:33.340 you can have all kinds

00:12:34.160 of motions or whatever

00:12:34.960 and it's going to take

00:12:35.760 a really long time

00:12:36.420 to get through everything.

00:12:37.260 They have hours and hours

00:12:38.160 and hours of policy debate.

00:12:39.760 So, you know,

00:12:40.740 there isn't an opportunity

00:12:42.200 within the Constitution

00:12:43.100 of the party

00:12:43.720 as it is now

00:12:44.560 for any motions

00:12:45.940 from the floor,

00:12:46.680 so to speak.

00:12:47.660 You know,

00:12:47.960 I hear a lot of frustration

00:12:49.900 from social conservatives

00:12:52.060 in the Conservative Party

00:12:53.200 or in Canada

00:12:53.980 more broadly

00:12:55.220 about where things are.

00:12:56.700 They feel they don't

00:12:57.340 have a voice.

00:12:58.040 Aaron O'Toole,

00:12:58.980 a big part of his leader,

00:13:00.040 was that he personally

00:13:01.500 isn't a social conservative,

00:13:02.760 he's personally pro-choice,

00:13:03.980 but he wants to listen

00:13:05.260 to pro-life voices.

00:13:07.400 Do you think there is reason

00:13:08.460 for social conservatives

00:13:09.920 in the Conservative movement

00:13:11.340 to be optimistic right now?

00:13:13.520 Well,

00:13:13.960 it's an interesting question

00:13:15.040 and I know a lot of people,

00:13:16.440 a lot of pro-lifers

00:13:17.420 were upset

00:13:17.800 over the Derek Sloan expulsion

00:13:19.480 and I think that there's

00:13:20.880 legitimate questions

00:13:22.000 about, you know,

00:13:23.100 $131 being donated

00:13:24.920 to his leadership campaign

00:13:25.980 when he was raising

00:13:26.960 hundreds of thousands

00:13:27.680 of not millions

00:13:28.340 from a racist

00:13:29.380 under a different name.

00:13:30.340 I think that's a very

00:13:30.940 spurious charge

00:13:32.080 and a very spurious reason

00:13:33.180 to eject a member

00:13:34.640 of caucus from caucus.

00:13:36.640 But that being said,

00:13:38.660 you know,

00:13:38.980 Aaron O'Toole,

00:13:39.700 when he spoke to

00:13:40.560 our organization

00:13:41.440 during the leadership race,

00:13:42.760 he was very clear,

00:13:43.680 like he said,

00:13:44.160 on his personal stances.

00:13:45.720 But he also did,

00:13:46.760 you know,

00:13:48.080 offer pro-lifers

00:13:49.480 a couple different things.

00:13:50.880 Number one,

00:13:51.340 he said free votes

00:13:52.440 within the House of Commons

00:13:53.400 on our issues,

00:13:54.520 something that has been

00:13:55.320 a long-standing tradition

00:13:56.420 within the Conservative Party

00:13:57.560 of Canada

00:13:58.000 and something,

00:13:58.580 by the way,

00:13:59.360 that the Peter McKay

00:14:00.040 leadership campaign

00:14:01.640 was not promising

00:14:02.440 and then changed

00:14:03.760 their minds on.

00:14:04.880 Number two,

00:14:05.720 it was that he would

00:14:06.600 fight tooth and nail

00:14:07.560 against the expansion

00:14:09.000 of assisted suicide

00:14:09.900 and I think we've seen that.

00:14:11.340 Aaron personally

00:14:12.060 has spoken about it

00:14:13.200 numerous times,

00:14:15.220 specifically from

00:14:15.820 a personal perspective

00:14:17.200 regarding his own mother

00:14:18.980 going through something

00:14:19.840 similar when she was

00:14:21.000 sadly dying of cancer

00:14:22.880 when he was a young boy.

00:14:24.240 He spoke about it

00:14:25.500 in the House of Commons

00:14:26.060 recently this past autumn

00:14:27.280 against the expansion

00:14:28.220 of assisted suicide

00:14:29.440 and when the finalized

00:14:30.960 version of the bill

00:14:31.620 came forward to the House

00:14:32.560 last week,

00:14:33.400 we saw that every single

00:14:34.780 member of the Conservative

00:14:35.700 Caucus who was present

00:14:36.840 voted against that legislation.

00:14:40.200 So, you know,

00:14:40.960 under Aaron's leadership,

00:14:42.680 we have seen pro-lifers

00:14:43.660 be able to maneuver

00:14:44.620 on a couple of things.

00:14:45.400 Kathy Wackenthal,

00:14:46.500 she has her sex 1.00

00:14:47.420 selective abortion bill,

00:14:48.840 private members bill,

00:14:49.640 coming forward to the House

00:14:50.760 in about a month's time.

00:14:52.480 Hopefully sooner rather

00:14:53.500 than later it'll have

00:14:54.260 a second reading vote

00:14:55.240 in the House of Commons.

00:14:56.420 And then the third thing

00:14:57.100 he promised or at least

00:14:59.240 indicated that he would do

00:15:00.200 within our interview

00:15:01.020 during the leadership race,

00:15:02.020 which is available

00:15:02.540 on our website,

00:15:03.660 is that he would campaign

00:15:05.880 against funding

00:15:08.140 of abortion overseas.

00:15:09.660 Now that has yet

00:15:10.320 to come to pass

00:15:11.000 because there hasn't

00:15:11.440 been an election yet.

00:15:12.320 So I think we have

00:15:13.480 to give Aaron Toole

00:15:14.340 some time to see

00:15:16.580 what he will do

00:15:17.440 and not do.

00:15:18.500 But on the things

00:15:19.280 that he did say

00:15:20.000 that he would do so far,

00:15:21.100 he has been able to do it.

00:15:22.160 And of course,

00:15:23.140 Aaron O'Toole is one

00:15:24.040 of 338 members of Parliament.

00:15:25.840 We have 337 rottings

00:15:27.400 we have to focus on.

00:15:28.620 We have a number

00:15:29.680 of pro-life members

00:15:30.420 of Parliament

00:15:30.820 who will be running

00:15:31.380 for re-election

00:15:32.020 and we have to focus

00:15:33.320 to make sure

00:15:33.940 that we get them re-elected.

00:15:35.240 So if pro-lifers out there

00:15:36.360 are kind of disappointed

00:15:37.260 or disillusioned

00:15:38.340 with Aaron O'Toole,

00:15:39.700 you know,

00:15:40.020 only the people

00:15:40.980 who live in the rotting

00:15:41.820 of Durham

00:15:42.100 can vote for

00:15:42.960 against Aaron O'Toole.

00:15:44.460 We have other pro-lifers

00:15:46.200 that we have to make sure

00:15:47.260 that they get elected

00:15:48.240 to the House of Commons

00:15:49.280 in this upcoming election

00:15:50.980 and that's what our goal

00:15:51.940 is going to be going forward.
