Stillwell, past national president of Alliance for Life, addressed about 60 people in.a meeting room at the Pentecostal Church Sept. 21. She arrived in the northwest Sept. 20, speaking to a group in - Smithers the previous evening. Stillwell is the mother of eight. Those familiar with Alliance for Life and the industrious nature of her position were awed to learn that she brought into the world two of her children during the three and one half years she held a position on the executive. Alliance for Life is the education- al wing of the Canadian Pro-life organization. At the meeting in Terrace, Still- well gave an overview and update on the Pro-life movement in Canada. Giving an example of the ‘involvement of young people in . the issue, she stated that debates are being held at McGill Univer- sity in which the alumni are tak- ing part. _ “Tn general,” she said, “although , we don’t have any law protecting the unborn at the present time in Canada, people are becoming bet- ter informed of the issues.” Such as: “there’s no such thing as a~ safe medical abortion, the reality of post-abortion trauma, or the myth that it is mainly very young girls and rape victims who have them.” (Statistics for Mills Memorial Hospital in Terrace show that of 81 abortions, only six were for girls 14 to 16 years of age; the majority involved women over 19.) There was a discussion on the - ramifications for the future regarding the possible use of fetal ‘parts and the link between the “abortion mentality” to euthana- sia. Euthanasia, when taken to its extreme, could become the dis- posal of those in society who are not “useful” -— like the very old and handicapped. Stillwell, a member of the school board in Surrey, suggested that parents take a long, hard look at the ethics that are beginning to be taught in our school system. She said that those concerned with these life issues can best help in theit own back yard. “Are you sensitive to the person down the street who may feel that she is in a desperate situation? Do your kids know why you go to those meetings?” she asked. "How about your brother-in-law, is he informed?” _ She concluded her address by saying that she believed most doctors do not particularly like to do abortions. “We need to change the emotional climate so that doc- tors will-have the courage to say no,” she said. “Then perhaps we will avoid tragedies such as occurfed in Terrace recently.” [ Looking back... Compiled by Diana English he Premier and several of his cabinet ministers drew about 450 people to a Town Hall meeting one year ago this week. Major issues were concerns about the future of the forest industry, land claims, health, education and the Shames Mountain road. Front and centre of the forest industry concems, and in fact the Town Hall meeting, were the government’s inability to help Weedene River Timber from falling into bankruptcy earlier that year and the awarding of the ’ Sustut-Takla timber licence to Pririce George interests. Also this week in 1990 Skeena River professional fishing guides were lamenting the loss of tourists duc to poor steelhead returns. The local guides said Japanese fishermen had spent a considerable amount of money in the area in past years but the tourists would probably prefer . to fish in other areas of the world than to get "skunked" on the Skeena again.
