Once again, we see another “bubble zone” law popping up in yet another province. This time, it is in Scott Moe’s Saskatchewan.

Friends, we need to burst this “bubble zone” proposal before it sticks!

Bill 605, “An Act to Provide Safe Access to Abortion Services”, will criminalize all pro-life speech, expression, and prayer in large public “zones” all across the province – maybe even outside your own property! It must be stopped in its tracks!

Perhaps over one year of COVID restrictions has numbed us to the danger of government overreach and overregulation. However, with the introduction of Bill 605, an opposition New Democratic Party proposal, we need to shake off our complacency and speak out to maintain our life-affirming, life-saving pro-life witness in Saskatchewan.

Several provinces have already fallen prey to pro-abortion propaganda and blindly adopted “bubble zones” to muzzle their own people. Alberta and Ontario are two recent examples. Citizens are forbidden from exercising their full constitutional rights within large, city block-sized areas surrounding abortion killing centres. You might be standing on a public sidewalk or in a public park, but if you are a pro-lifer in the “speech-restricted zone”, you have fewer rights and freedoms than the pro-abort right next to you. If you look the wrong way, say the wrong thing, or even just pray in silence, you will be arrested by the new “thought police”.

Free speech rights have been suspended in Ontario and Alberta – all because the pro-aborts want to silence us.

In Ontario, the “bubble zone” law has resulted in the arrest of Father Tony Van Hee, who is fighting the charge in court. Ironically, Father Tony was not even protesting abortion when he was arrested, but was simply holding up a sign that read: “The Primacy of Free Speech: Cornerstone of Western Civilization”.

Enacting a law that takes away our right to protest said law is the mark of a totalitarian regime, not a functioning democracy!

It is imperative that we stand together against “bubble zone” laws whenever and wherever they raise their ugly heads. They are a partisan political tool to silence the opposition. They are a protection racket for abortionists, helping them line their pockets through the state-promoted murder of pre-born babies.

That’s why I’m asking you to join us in reaching out to Premier Moe and Justice Minister Wyant.

NDP Status of Women Critic, Jennifer Bowes, along with her pro-abort allies, are clamouring for a “bubble zone” law in Saskatchewan. They have been fearmongering about the “threat” of violence from pro-life counsellors and protesters around abortuaries – violence that simply does not exist!

Though we would not expect the government of Scott Moe to be sympathetic to an NDP proposal, Justice Minister Wyant (who is himself pro-abortion) appears to be sympathetic to Bill 605. He said, “I do want to look at the legislation to make sure that it fulfills the public policy concerns that have been expressed by the opposition, and have a look at what other provinces have done in that regard.”

Therefore, it is imperative that we voice our concerns and condemn this dangerous threat to our freedoms before it becomes law. We need to speak out for our right to help abortion-minded women and try to save their preborn children. Would you consider signing our petition to call on the government of Saskatchewan to reject Bill 605, the “bubble zone” law?

Also, once you’ve signed, please be sure to share this petition with your friends, family, and church community.
