LETTER TO THE EDITOR

DID YOU KNOW THAT IN CANADA:

...adults can legally have sex with children as young as 14?

...hardcore illegal pornography is available on C.R.T.C approved TV channels?

...23,000 pedophile web sites are available on the internet?

...in our highly permissive country we recently refused to charge 16 members of the Wonderland Club in Ontario, Quebec and B.C who were identified by U.S authorities as child pornographers - each prospective member was required to provide members with 10,000 new sexually-explicit images of children?

Only in Canada!

What is happening to our country, "the best country in the world"? What is happening to our children, our priceless treasure?

Just take a look at your daily newspaper or TV etc and you are assaulted by mind-numbing havoc caused by our permissive culture and easy availibility of pornography. Paul Bernardo, Clifford Olsen and Ted Bundy are some of the monsters created by the insidious pornography industry.

Exploitive sexual images have permeated our society, our entertainment and our advertising. Sex has become our idol.

The results are devastating:

Children are damaged and broken in spirit. Women debased and treated as mere objects. Men enticed into porn addiction. Marriages destroyed. Families torn apart. Pure love, chastity, abstinence, marriage, and Godly virtues ridiculed. Teen pregnancies, abortions, sexually-transmitted diseases keep going up and up. Sexual violence glorified. Children turning on children - with increasing ferocity. It is sickening and sad. God help us.

Concerned citizens are trying to do something about it. But we need your help. White Ribbons Against Pornography (WRAP) is kicking off a national campaign across Canada from October 21 to 28. It is co-ordinated by CASE (Canadians Addressing Sexual Exploitation). Also, there is a parallel campaign to raise the age of consent to 18, conducted by Canada Family Action Coalition (CFAC). We have displays, brochures and ribbons to wear available at local libraries.

Kindly avail yourself of the services, literature, the ribbons et al and become an informed citizen.

Then please send your ribbon to your M.P c/o House of Commons, Ottawa ON K1A OA6 (postage free) and write a brief letter expressing your concerns.

Please make sure to urge your MP to raise the age of consent from the current irresponsible 14 to 18, and mention the fact that Canadians do not vote, consume alcohol, fight wars or engage in other adult activities legally until age 18. Sexual activity is an adult activity with adult consequences including disease and pregnancy.

Thank you.

Yours sincerely,
