Linda Cook -Martyr

    Some years ago John and I made an effort to go to the Sask Pro- life Assoc. Rally in Regina although it is about 900 kilometers one way. I had something that we especially needed to be said. Some people said “ don’t you think the Caswells should be allowed to speak? The then president said no because I had been charged with breaking and entering. My alleged B& E was when my husband climbed up the patio broke the window , climbed in and unlocked the door when La Ronge Housing had changed the locks. It was April 23, a three day snow storm was at it’s full height . Note: John, not I climbed into our house. Gay, not John was charged with a  B& E. That however is not what we wanted to say: This is it.
   
     A mother, Mrs. Linda Cook  with fourteen children was forced to go to Saskatoon City Hospital , was scheduled for an abortion. She ran away from the hospital, She was forced to go back. This was repeated three times. Mrs. Linda Cook had never been in Saskatoon before, knew no one, knew no individual or group that would help, yet she was willing to face city traffic, unknown public buildings, closed private homes, to escape killing her child.  She was dragged back. By what authority? By whom?  This was repeated three times. Why did no one intervene? How could she have given any consent verbally or in writing?   In addition they forcibly sterilised her.
   
    We had heard something of this from Linda’s mother - in- law.  As  her life long tradition Linda told her priest, Fr. LeMay who had been their community priest for seventeen years. He now was our priest . Fr. LeMay was in many ways more isolated from the south than we now are. But he knew that we would make known this atrocity. That is why we bothered to go to the Pro- Life Annual Meeting. I could tell a little of the story and expected time to tell more.

    The President of Sask.Pro- Life said “ No one wants to hear about this anymore. SHE HAD HER FOUURTEEN !!”

    Saskatchewan is full of  large families. Lutherans, Catholics, United, et c had them and fortunately are still having them. Why this contempt for native families ?  The thought of their breeding is so horrible that coercion, violence, capture and locked doors in a public hospital in the middle of Saskatoon justifies this?  What Linda went through sounds like something worse than a posse complete with guns and hounds for an escaped slave in UNCLE TOM’S CABIN.

    Linda grieved everyday. The Southend Clinic gave her medicine. The doctor or doctors knew that we knew her story. The medicine ate holes in her stomach. She died quickly and painfully. We could not go to the funeral of our friend and of a martyr who braved everything rather than kill her child.. I could not trust myself to contain my anger appropriate for a funeral.

    There was talk of suing the... Clinic?  Indian Affairs?  The Government of Saskatchewan?. How do you sue anyone under socialised medicine ? Who will take the case ? And who will pay for it? Government owned Legal Aid?  The only court Linda, her family and we will get is the Court of Public Opinion and Sask. Pro-Life won’t get us there.

Darlene Clarke

TWJMJ
Aug.20, 2019

    We knew Darlene Clarke as a young camper who came with her sister April.  The priest realised that she had not been baptised when she lined up for confession. He did not want to baptise her without her mother’s permission. Darlene often was frightened probably with good reason. Yet when she had an unattended infected foot she submitted with courage as I cleaned out the pus and bandaged it. She said to one of the senior campers. “ I only cried when Mrs. Caswell squeezed the pus from my foot.”

    Miss Bella Clarke , her mother was involved in a terrible vehicle accident at the corner of Deschambeault Lake , Sask.. Bella was badly burned particularly on her face. She did survive for a few weeks.  Her grandfather Thomas had passed away.  Sometime later her grandmother Annie had died . Both are buried in the La Ronge Cemetery  Darlene didn’t quite have a permanent home. She became pregnant. That baby in her womb was the only family she had. She desperately wanted that baby.

Darlene was yanked and shoved into a medical taxi ,  a taxi that takes people where it is ordered to go. There is no expertise or therapy involved. The taxi was ordered to
go to deliver Darlene to Vic Hospital for an abortion. She cried all the way. On going home after the abortion she cried all the way. Soon she killed herself.

    Nobody bothered to intervene, to tell the driver to stop and let her go to a safe place. Perhaps the other passengers have been told that you can’t interject. You can’t protest or perhaps you will be denied medical care and medical taxis. I do not know what was said or not said. I do know that northerners are taught to submit or you will be punished one way or another.

    While travelling in the Prince Albert, La Ronge area I encountered several occasions when elders would come up to us and say “ Darlene was my grandaughter. Now we all know that natives have only four grandparents like everybody , not fifteen but people months later wanted to tell us” We took this personally, this hurt and is still hurting . We don’t want it to happen again.
    I was telling this to a couple home in Prince Albert, a Catholic home. The woman, a long time nurse said “ That is exactly the opposite of what we are told. We are told that abortion doesn’t bother natives. It is only pro- lifers who interfere and bother them. These two did not believe this but nobody in a lifetime career of nursing bothered to explain that natives hurt and hurt intensely. The more they hurt the more silent they are until it is safe to speak. 

    We are honoured to have a reputation of knowing that natives see us as people who see them with feelings and moral convictions.  Of course their priests and nuns who cared and taught them knew they were people with hearts, loyalties and deep hurts but now that crowd is tripping all over themselves apologising for the Gospel.

    If we had known of the situation we would have done what was necessary to find Darlene and take her home so she and the baby could be safe as long as they needed us. But there is no network to help and rescue these girls. Once Darlene and baby were safe there would be lots of relatives and friends of the family who would want to get involved...maybe more than we would prefer but that is a happy problem.
    In the meantime we say," THERE IS NO CHOICE "TO THE ALLEGED PRO - CHOICERS IN THE NORTH.  Gay

Genecide Against Fellow Canadians

JMJ
March 29,2016
Easter Tuesday
   
    Former Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau and his son, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau can be called Book Ends of Death. On May 14, 1969 Pierre Trudeau tabled as Bill 1 the Omnibus Bill which legalised homosexuality, legalised contraception and abortion, legalised divorce and legalised abortion . It was a perfect package to attack the Judeo- Christian heritage and culture of Canada. Many people only remember, only fight against abortion since that was the most blatant injustice but all the components were needed to replace Christian Canada with secular Canada and to push us down the slippery slope of the Culture of Death.

    In the most underpopulated country in the world, millions and millions of Canadians were murdered for the “ crime” of residing in their mother’s womb and being inconvenient to somebody. The public was not told prior to his election that abortion was top of the Trudeau agenda. If there had been a public debate Trudeau probably never would have got elected and we would not have unrestricted abortion.
   
    It could be argued that Trudeau greatly helped Roe vs Wade pass in the Supreme Court of the United States of America on Jan.22, 1973. Canada was considered a more conservative or moderate country than the U.S.  People could look to Canada and say they have had abortion for 4 years and everything is as stable and calm as usual. There were protests from the very beginning. The Catholic Women’s League presented a petition with a million signatures. Paul Martin Senior  resigned his cabinet post rather than vote for abortion.

    Pierre Trudeau protected the Morgenthaler abortion clinics when they were clearly illegal. Morgenthaler was not a doctor. He had three years of medical school, never operated within the law and never had any legal restrictions of any kind on his abortuaries. Trudeau’s cousin, Dr. Trudeau gave medical referrals to cabinet minister’s mistresses to  “dr” Morgenthaler.

    Pierre Trudeau with an assist by the NDP handed over powers from the legislatures, aand Parliament to the Supreme Court. Not only are the decisions of the Supreme Court against the constitution of Canada and basic human rights but these 9 men and women tell us what and when we must pass laws written by them. This is totally against Canadian tradition and fundamental democracy

    Now his son Justin  gets elected by the media drooling over him. He immediately calls for increased access to abortion throughout Canada. Many places like Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia have driven abortion out of their provinces. Canada is still vastly underpopulated especially in the northern areas. Indians and Eskimoes in the main hate abortion and are often forced into sterilisation and abortion . There is a great need for medical ethics in the north not more coercive killing.
   
    Then Justin has come up with a report, Assisted Death. There was a committee to blame but the report is his. It is more blatantly murderous than Hitler’s Mein Kampf.  The sick are forced into death. The most vulnerable, children, poor,youth , the mentally ill are assigned to manipulation , coercion and death.
    
    Trudeau and Trudeau together have committed and will committ genocide on millions of fellow Canadians. Murder is their family business owned and operated  since 1969.  Gay

P.S. Mother Angelica, the foundress of EWTN, has just died a natural death. Mother Angelica please pray for Canada.

Letting Murderers Win

JMJ
Jan.14,2016

    In the Campaign Life Coalition Newsletter I discovered what should have been on bill boards across Canada four months before the Federal Election : Quote:

...The Conservatives , stacked as it was with pro- life MP’s managed to hold back much evil, for example:

1: Keeping abortion funding of out Canada’s Maternal and Child Care Initiative

2: Defeating an opposition euthanasia bill

3.Defeating two incarnations of the dangerous transexual “ Bathroom Bill”

4. Restored anti- prostitution laws after the Supreme Court tried to legalise it.

So why are we hearing about these things three months after the election?? Prime Minister Harper had to endure an advertising team which put out an ad that stated “ Harper isn’t perfect but....”
Everyone knows that no person is perfect but for a campaign so called conservative team to put out such an ad is political sabatoge.

The Pro- life movement has their own political sabateurs. Since 1969 we have had no opportunity to make any headway on the pro- life issue in the House of Commons. For the first time we had a party that allowed any legislation to come to a vote.

 Please get this straight and please quote me at every opportunity. There is a time to discuss “mixed reviews” and Harper’s caution et c. The 2015 Life or Death Election wasn’t it.  Harper’s resistance  was probably engendered by threats from U.S. Secretary of State Hilary Clinton who can cause financial retaliation if the PM got too pro- life.

 Many Conservatives do not want to make pro- life an issue because they find economic issues more comfortable and they are not sure that pro-lifers pay their political debts but only want politicals martyrs who will sacrifice their party and seat, if not our country for the cause. I am not so sure either.

In the last week of the campaign I received a mailing showing which candidates returned their pro- life score card. People should have been activated months in advance to not only  vote but work for the pro- life and Conservative candidates. It was already clear that no NDP and no Liberal candidate was going to be prolife. They were long silenced or kicked out of the party. So the whole effort was a waste of time and money. Pro- lifers should have been manning the phones, putting up signs and informing everyone in public media such as TV, radio ads, billboards, U- tubes, Face Book et c.months before the election. They should have worked at getting more workers for the Conservatives and thus inadvertently more pro- lifers in strategic positions.

Where we live some people may not know what an economy is and aren’t sure if they have one or not.  They would however have understood a bill board that said “ The Liberals and NDP want to kill your grandmother.”  Or “ Isn’t she cute ?( Large photo of native baby ) The Liberals and NDP want her dead” Or how about a picture of a young man with the words
“ He committed suicide.  The Liberals and NDP want to help others do the same.”

You may say but that’s not our style, or it’s in bad taste. This isn’t about your style . It’s about saving lives and saving our country. Murder is in bad taste. It was our job to stop the murderers from getting into power  and we blew it. Learn. Change. Or rather : Repent. Act.   Gay

Life Taken Away by Connie Daylight

JMJ
Sept.26, 2013
    The following poem appeared in NITE TALES published by Pahkisimon Nuyeah Library. It is reprinted her by permission of the author, Connie Daylight who lives in Sandy Bay. She is a mother and grandmother.
   
    LIFE TAKEN AWAY
   
    Oh, wearisome condition of humanity,
    Born under one law to ban another.
    What is life when you die, before being born.
    In our mother’s womb sheltered,
    While she makes her choice.
    I wish there was no end.
    I wish for life to amend
    But, when this life comes from my mother’s body, only she will choose.
    Where my thought and dreams of life ,
    I can’t see or hear,
    For I feel that death is near.
    Nor chance will I have to see my mother or even glance at my father.
    No breath to gasp when I cry at birth,
    Give me the chance to life,
    Let the law go, the law that kills.
    The wicked men and women born before me made this law,
    No life I shall see.
    Christ may come and I depart thee.
    Born not yet, banish this law and I will live to forgive,
    Nature has no laws.
    Nature herself grants me this chance.
    Look at your tummy and think of me.
    Death comes and doctors murder me.
    My life is parted by a mere desertion,
    Oh, I hate this word called abortion.
