B.C. judge rejects anti-abortion ads on Vancouver-area buses


An anti-abortion group will not be allowed to plaster Metro Vancouver buses with graphic ads that claim "Abortion Kills Children," following a judgment in B.C. The proposed ads from the Calgary-based Canadian Centre for Bio-Ethical Reform also showed images of fetuses, purportedly at seven and 16 weeks' gestation, along with the website address "endthekilling.ca." But Justice Peter Leask wrote Wednesday that the decision to reject the ads was appropriate. Later, the transit authority asked for an opinion from Advertising Standards Canada. He went on to say that if anyone had visited endthekilling.ca, they would have found "extreme content," including images of dismembered fetuses.
