Thousands of people gathered on Parliament Hill for the annual March for Life anti-abortion rally on May 12, with supporters calling for upholding the right to life for every human being from conception to natural death.
Campaign Life Coalition (CLC), the organizer of the National March for Life rally, said in a news release that the purpose of the event is to fight “government-sanctioned abortion-on-demand and euthanasia.”
“The National March for Life, at its core, is a protest against the greatest human rights injustice of our age. Because of the urgency and importance of life issues like abortion and euthanasia, we have a duty to hold our legislators to account,” said Debbie Duval, CLC’s national capital organizer.
“The law must protect life, not sanction its termination.”
This year’s rally focuses on the theme of “I AM,” a first-person declaration of a human being’s right to exist. The CLC says on its website that “‘I AM’ is a claim to existence—an assertion that says ‘I am her! Notice me!” and “‘I AM’ demands a law to protect the preborn.”
