À maintes reprises, nous avons de la misère à faire passer le message qui parle de la beauté de notre culture d'origine, de nos valeurs d'origine, et nous devons également affronter cer- taines positions que nos enfants prennent face à certains sujets sociaux. Il est bien évident que lorsqu'on parle d'une société, il ne faut pas que ça prenne une forme d'histoire: un enfant qui ne vit pas les valeurs d'une société ne peut pas se lever pour la défendre. countinue on page 3 2 The History of Abortion in Canada (part 1) 1969 – The Criminal Code is amended to decriminalize abortions done by a doctor in a hospital after approval for the procedure has been given by a “therapeutic abortion committee” who judged that a woman’s life or health “would” or “would be likely” to be affected by continuation of pregnancy. No obligation for either doctors or hospitals to participate in abortion. Within a couple of years, abortions are covered under the publicly funded health care system even though government ministers had reassured opponents it would not be. 1973-74 – Henry Morgentaler sets up an abortion clinic in Montreal contrary to law. He is arrested, charged, found innocent, decision appealed, found guilty. This happens three times. Finally the Quebec government stops charging him and he continues to do abortions in Montreal. 1975 – A petition of over 1 million signatures, the largest in Canadian history, is presented to parliament requesting protection for the life of the unborn. 1975 – Joe Borowski, former NDP Minister of Highways in Manitoba, launches a court case asking that the 1969 amendments to the Criminal Code be declared invalid, and declaring that the outlay of public money for abortion is un- lawful because it contravenes the Canadian Bill of Rights. 1981 – The province of Quebec sets up Abortion Clinics as part of its community health services. These CLSC’s operate outside Canadian law but with the financial backing of the government of Quebec. 1982 – Henry Morgentaler announces plans to establish a free standing abortion clinic in Winnipeg. Shortly thereafter he opens one in Toronto. In Manitoba, the College of Physicians & Surgeons refuses to license the facility. 1983 – Morgentaler is charged with illegal abortion, along with abortionists Dr. Leslie Smoling and Dr. Robert Scott. Morgentaler and Scott are also charged in Winnipeg. 1985 – The Ontario jury acquits the abortionists after accepting Morgentaler’s use of the defense of necessity. The Ontario Court of Appeal reverses the decision. Morgentaler asks the Supreme Court to hear the case. 1986 – Eighteen year old Erin Shannon dies at Ottawa Civic Hospital following a “legal” abortion. 1986 – Roussel Uclaf, manufacturer and distributor of RU-486 signs an agreement with the World Health Organization at the Population Council making RU-486 available to these agencies worldwide. 1988 – The Supreme Court of Canada in a split decision strikes down Section 251 of the Criminal Code; declaring it unconstitutional. Provinces respond by setting up their own regulations on the performance of abortion. In Manitoba where the Morgentaler case was in abeyance pending the Supreme Court decision, the government now permits abortions outside of hospitals but refuses to pay for abortions from public funds. Morgentaler announces a five year plan to open clinics in all provinces. 1988 – The Borowski case which had been going to court parallel with Morgentaler’s is declared moot since the law on abortion no longer exists. 1989 – Various proposals are made to draft a new abortion law. One submitted by Gus Mitges MP, which would have prevented all abortions, comes closest to passing. In the end no proposal receives majority support. 1989 – Barbara Dodd in Toronto and Chantal Daigle in Quebec go to court to try to get abortions after their boyfriends got injunctions to prevent them from doing so. Dodds gets the OK from the Supreme Court of Ontario, aborts, then regrets her decision. Daigle is refused by Quebec’s Superior Court, goes to Supreme Court and is given the go ahead even though she has already had an abortion in the U.S. Now no father can prevent abortion of his child. 1989 – A new abortion law, Bill C-43, is presented in the House of Commons. It passes May 29, 1990 and is sent to Senate for debate. Bill C-43 retains abortion as a criminal offence but permits it on very broad grounds. http://abortionincanada.ca/history/abortion-in-canada-timeline/ 3 Pope Francis has sent a letter to thousands of people before over 20,000 Canadians gathered on Parliament Hill in who converged on Parliament Hill in the annual March Ottawa for the Canadian March for Life. for Life 2014. The annual pro-life march occurred a day after Liberal leader “I am deeply concerned about your decision that citizens who, in conscience, seek to assure the protection of the most vulne- rable among us are not acceptable as candidates in your par- ty,” the cardinal wrote in his new letter. He noted Pope Francis’ message of support to the March for Life, in which the pontiff assu- red participants of his “spiritual closeness.” Justin Trudeau said pro-life supporters would be banned from “It is worth noting that running for office as candidates of the Liberal party. if Pope Francis, as a But it was the Pope's message that was read aloud to an en- young man, instead of thusiastic, peaceful crowd that organizers projected would top seeking to serve in the 20,000.

  • Mcdonald Word Part 2
    Chapter 6 KELLY O'Kelly Douglas The name Kelly (and/or O'Kelly) is the second most common name in Ireland with about 50,000 people of that name today. The Kellys do not all descend from a common ancestor. The name O'Kelly is the anglicized form of O'Ceallaigh or O'Caollaidhe. The name is found throughout Ireland and comes from a variety of origins. It is most commonly found in the Counties of: Galway, Meath, Leix, Derry, Antrim, Wicklow and Sligo. Our ancestor, John Kelly was born in 1806 someplace in Ireland and came to Canada as a young single man. He probably came with his parents, brothers and sisters. In the early parish records in, and around, Ottawa there are a number of Kellys. Many of these may have been related to John but we are not certain of any family relationships. There was a Martin Kelly and his wife Bridget Hough living in the area and we have wondered if they could have been the parents of our 75 John Kelly. We do not know the ages of this couple but John and Mary had a son named Thomas Martin and two daughters named Bridget. There was also an elderly man named William Kelly and his wife Anne Kelly who lived near Ottawa at that time. It is possible they may have been John's parents. This couple had a son named William who married Jane Cassidy and they lived very close to our John Kelly's family. In the same area was another man named Thomas Kelly and his wife Bridget Kilduff.

  • TOH Information Systems Update October 2016
    TOH Information Systems Update October 2016 1. Introduction Recently, The Ottawa Hospital (TOH) was asked to provide a written summary of its views on the current and future value of Ontario’s digital health assets. This report is intended to provide a brief history of TOH information systems development, a synopsis of the current state and our plans for acquiring and implementing a Hospital Information System (HIS). Our future horizon is 3 – 5 years and includes a summary of key barriers and enablers. 2. A History of IS/IT at The Ottawa Hospital The Ottawa Hospital is a multi-campus organization resulting from a sudden and, for many, an unforeseen merger of three Ottawa-based hospitals in 1998 - The Ottawa General Hospital, The Ottawa Civic Hospital, and The Riverside Hospital, and the closure of a fourth hospital, the Salvation Army Grace Hospital. Both the General and the Civic hospitals had academic mandates affiliated with the University of Ottawa (uOttawa). The competition between the Civic and General was intense and the hostilities were deeply rooted right down to the frontline staff and physicians. Prior to the merger, each organization had its own IS/IT department and very little if anything in common for IS/IT solutions. Both organizations used a “best-of-breed” model, whereby individual software solutions were purchased or developed, configured, customized and integrated together into a more complete solution. Looking at Electronic Health Records solutions, the General had installed the OACIS (Open Architecture Clinical Information System) solution in 1995, which had recently been deployed using a Web browser client.
