's interim Liberal Leader Robert Mitchell says he supports a woman's right to choose an abortion, but attended a March for Life rally on Sunday because he feels it is important to "listen to all Islanders on all issues." On Sunday, Mitchell would not comment to CBC about his attendance at the rally. On Monday, after further reflection, he said he attended the anti-abortion rally in Charlottetown at the request of a constituent. Mitchell says he supported and still stands by the former Liberal government's decision to provide access to abortion on P.E.I. Right to Life Association, says Mitchell was doing what parliamentarians are supposed to do — 'listen to what their constituents have to say.'
