PAOV – There's a new petition taking off on Change.org, and we think you might be interested in signing it.

Cette pétition prend de l'ampleur sur Change.org, souhaitez-vous la signer? Elle demande à la Commission des transports de Toronto de retirer des annonces anti-choix qui utilisent la peur pour influencer les femmes à faire des choix personnels, car les femmes ont le droit de prendre le transport en commun sans être soumises à de la propagande qui va à l'encontre des valeurs de liberté et de tolérance.


TTC, Advertising Review Working Group: Remove anti-choice ads on the TTC

Lara Star
Toronto, Canada Sign Lara's petition

Pregnancy Care Centers are anti-choice and are known to provide women with false medical information on abortions. They use scare tactics and christian propaganda to influence people's decisions. In Canada, by law all women are allowed a safe and affordable abortion.

To be able to make the best decisions for ourselves, we MUST receive accurate information.

We ask that the Toronto Transit Commision Advertising Review Working Group see that the ad goes against Canadian views on women's access and health, and to remove the ad.

"If TTC receives five complaints about an advertisement, the ad will be forwarded to the Advertising Review Working Group (ARWG) for assessment. The ARWG is made up of appointed TTC Board Members and TTC staff whose role it is to review advertisements to determine compliance with this policy. If it is determined that a posted ad does not comply with TTC policy, the TTC will remove the ad from its property. The decision of ARWG is final."

Lets send them more than FIVE!

I`m [surprised, angry] to see advertisements from Pregnancy Care Centres on the TTC. Pregnancy Care Centres are anti-abortion centres known to provide women with FALSE information on sexual health and abortions. They are known to use scare tactics and christian propaganda to influence people`s decisions. This goes against Canada's views and laws around safe abortion. Please remove these ads. Thank you.
