Conservative backbencher John Reimer, a key strategist in the cam paign to restrict access to abortion, welcomed the latest ruling by Mr Justice Jacques Viens of Quebec Superior Court, who has issued an injunction barring a planned abor tion Viens ruled that the unborn child of Chantal Daigle has a right to life guaranteed by the provincial Char ter of Rights. The decision was to. be reviewed by an appeal panel in Quebec City today Two weeks ago, a Winnipeg judge ruled that a woman in that city had an unrestricted right to abortion in the absence of any federal law to the contrary And last week in Toronto yet another judge struck down an in junction on technical grounds while evading the broader issue of constitutional rights I think it’s time to say, yes, this is urgent,’’ said Reimer in an inter \iew from his riding in Kitchener, Ont “All of these rulings across the Ottawa pressured to act, MPs say country — the conflicting opinions and rulings and appeals — it’s now time that Parliament accept its responsibility and act on the issue.”" NO GUARANTEES Gus Mitges, another ardent anti- abortionist, acknowledged that even if legislation is brought in, there is no guarantee it could pass ‘We may end up in the same dilemma as we did last year,"” the Tory said from his riding in Owen Sound, Ont Last July, MPs rejected all six policy proposals presented to them ina free vote. The deadlock left the country without a federal law to replace Criminal Code restrictions on abortion that were struck down by the Supreme Court of Canada in January 1988 as a violation of women’s rights under the federal charter A key factor in the stalemate was the refusal of more than 100 anti: abortion MPs — most of them Tories from southern Ontario and the West — to accept any law that would not ban abortion unless the life of the mother is threatened “1 couldn't compromise my principles,’’ said Mitges, a veterinarian. “I wouldn't even commit an abortion on acow.’ Investors say report backs claims VANCOUVER (CP) — A leader of July 19, 1989 a B.C. group 8 angry in- vestors of the failed Principal Group of companies said he is delighted the report of the Code inquiry “backs our claims."" “I'm very pleased,’’ Art Charbon- neau, president of the 5,500-member Principal Protection Association of B.C., said in an inter view from Kamloops. “In essence, Mr. (Bill) Code has backed up all of the claims we have been making that we were the victims of a giant fraud and that the fraud could not have been carried off without the complicity of gover- nment."” Code was appointed to investigate the collapse of the Edmonton-based firms on July 16, 1987, 16 days after the Alberta government suspended the licences of two Principal Group sub- sidiaries, Associated Investors of Canada and First Investors Corp. He concluded hearings Dec. 13, 1988. Code submitted his report to Mr. Justice Ronald Berger of the Alberta Court of Queen's Bench late Tuesday. The report said Principal founder Don Cormie and his partner Ken Marlin operated a grand plan to cover up.serious financial problems faced by the investment contract firms and parent company Principal Group Ltd. BLAMES GOVERNMENT Code said the Alberta government was unwilling and unable to ensure Fir- st Investors and Associated Investors met financial safeguards to protect in- vestors Alberta Premier Don Getty has said Alberta will compensate investors if Code finds the province negligent. “I'm more than satisfied for the present that Mr. Code has'concluded that the government of Alberta is at fault in this and hence Mr. Getty will presumably come through with ‘his pledge that he will compensate in- vestors should the government be found at fault,"’ Charbonneau said. More than 18,000 B.C. residents, many of whom moved here from Alberta to retire, had a total of $156 million invested in two Principal in- vestment contract companies when they collapsed A total of about 67,000 Canadians had between $457 million and $491 million invested in the group of com- panies.
