Remove anti-abortion ads from city buses


Remove anti-abortion ads from city buses
The Issue
In Canada women have the legal right to choose whether or not to abort a pregnancy. Women who exercise their right to choose should not be shamed by public bus ads promoting a subjective moral opposition to this right. It is shameful that the City of Guelph chooses the revenue from these ads over promoting women's legal rights, and in doing so that it displays obvious prejudice against many of its citizens. The City of Guelph should hence remove all anti-abortion ads from its public buses and abstain from running any such biased and offensive ads in the future.
