    Dr. Morgentaler is a true hero
    Dr. Morgentaler is indeed a true Canadian hero. He saved the lives of countless women by campaigning tirelessly to make sure women didn't have to undergo unsafe and illegal abortions, but were granted the human right to make private, personal decisions about their health and lives.

    It's very heartening to see that the CBC is featuring a true Canadian hero, a man whose legacy will live on for decades to come, championing important rights for women. Women are not going back to back-alley abortions, and I'm glad that in today's world, people trust women to make the best decisions for them, their lives, their family. Society is stronger because of this.
