REGINA, Saskatchewan, February 17, 2015 (LifeSiteNews.com<\/a>) \u2013 Christian doctors across Canada are vowing to challenge the constitutionality of the requirement now being considered by the Saskatchewan medical profession that all its members be required to perform abortions or assist at suicides\u2014or refer patients to other doctors who will.<\/p>\n

“This is moral genocide,” Saskatoon emergency room doctor Philip Fitzpatrick says of the policy, already approved in principle without consultation with doctors or the public by the Saskatchewan College of Physicians and Surgeons.<\/p>\n

“There\u2019s no medical reason for these clauses overriding our consciences,” he continued. “The people who want euthanasia and abortion on demand just don\u2019t like the fact somebody disagrees. They are trying to chase us out of the profession.”<\/p>\n

“We have to sue the College if it approves this policy,” Larry Worthen, executive director of the Christian Dental and Medical Association of Canada, told LifeSiteNews. “Half our members will have to quit if it were enforced. It goes against their very reason for being in medicine.” . . .[Full Text<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
