Article Information
| Background | Conservative backbencher MP Stephen Woodworth proposed Motion 312, which proposed to redefine when human life begins in the Criminal Code. |
| Reason | M-312 was the motion that got pro-choicers mobilized and the end result was The Radical Handmaids. I was quoted because of the rally we held against M-312. |
| Comment | I made my grandmother really proud with this quote: "Julie Lalonde, a member of the pro-choice group Radical Handmaids, said she hopes their work will send Mr. Woodworth's motion “back to the hell hole it came from.” |
| Outcome | M-312 was defeated in the fall of 2012. Woo! |
