Which is strange because the conservatives have been somewhat quietly working on related issues:

Quote:
One bill introduced last month would make it a criminal offence to "coerce" a woman into having an abortion. The proposed legislation was introduced by pro-life Conservative MP Rod Bruinooge, after a man in Winnipeg tried to force his girlfriend, Roxanne Fernando, into having an abortion in 2007. When she refused, her boyfriend murdered her.
(...)
Another bill, C-484, proposed in 2008, would have made it a criminal offence for someone to attack a woman with the intent of killing her unborn child.

The most mind blowing part of those bills is that some pro-choicers are against them... I have a hard time understanding their position on that.
