Pro-abortion activist sued for defamation

Vancouver crisis pregnancy centre takes Joyce Arthur to court
Joyce Arthur (pictured here during a recent interview with Brian Lilley
of Sun News Network) is being sued by Christian Advocacy Society
and the Crisis Pregnancy Centre of Vancouver for defaming
the centre in a 2009 report.
One of Canada's most prominent pro-abortion advocates, Joyce Arthur, is being sued by the Christian Advocacy Society and the Crisis Pregnancy Centre of Vancouver.

LifeSiteNews.com reports the suit alleges that Arthur's 2009 report “Exposing Crisis Pregnancy Centres in British Columbia” gave false information on crisis pregnancy centres:
In the suit against Joyce Arthur and the Pro-Choice Action Network, the Crisis Pregnancy Centre of Vancouver and The Christian Advocacy Society argue that the report by the pro-abortion group not only gave false information but has harmed the ability of the pro-life groups to provide care and help to women in crisis pregnancies.

An Access to Information request revealed that Pro-Choice Action Network received $27,400 from Status of Women Canada starting in 2005 for a project to “expose” crisis pregnancy centres, which the abortion-rights organization calls “fake clinics.”
