Join us in celebrating 20 years of safe and legal
reproductive choice in
Canada!
To celebrate, we want to hear your thoughts.
Tell us why a "Pro-Choice Canada" is so important and you
could win a
trip to Ottawa and the chance to be on national television!
More expressive through art than through word?
Submit your pro-choice work of art and you could have your
artwork
featured on the cover of a book!
In January 2008, Canadians everywhere will celebrate the
20th
anniversary of the Morgentaler decision that decriminalised
abortion in
Canada and gave women the right to control their
reproductive health. We
want you to reflect and celebrate with us! Too often,
sexual and
reproductive health issues are silenced in our country…
we would like
to offer you the opportunity to share your story.
Tell us in your own words through an essay, song lyrics, a
poem, a rant
or a testimony why the pro-choice movement has been- and
continues to be
so important. Or, you may choose to express your pro-choice
sentiments
through a painting, a drawing, a photo or another form of
visual art.
Enter the contest as many times as you want, the options
are endless!
If you like the idea of empowering Canada but would rather
do so
anonymously… that’s ok too! We will be accepting
submissions from both
participants who wish to share their thoughts publicly and
from
participants who would like to see their work published
anonymously in a
book of pro-choice compilations. Of course, in order to be
considered
for the contest you cannot be anonymous, but we would love
to hear from
you either way.
To enter the contest, please visit
www.canadiansforchoice.ca
<http://www.canadiansforchoice.ca/> and scroll down until
you see the
"Pro-Choice Canada Contest". You can either enter online,
or print off
the submission form and mail in your entry. Please share
this contest
announcement with family members, colleagues, clients and
friends. Our
goal is to have a wide array of diverse stories and artwork
to present
to the Canadian population in January in celebration of the
Morgentaler
Anniversary. Be a part of this important event… share
your story!
