Mike Schouten is the director of We Need a Law<br />
Canada, North Korea and China are the only three<br />
countries in the world that have no laws to protect<br />
pre-born life.<br />
Mike Schouten is the director of We Need a Law.<br />
He, along with eight volunteers and in partnership<br />
with the Association for Reformed Political Actions<br />
A peaceful rally was held on Main Street<br />
(ARPA) began the Life Tour in Moncton on September<br />
23. They plan to end on October 17 in Vancouver.<br />
The goal is to make political candidates and the general<br />
public aware of the campaign. Recognizing that<br />
change is done in a series of steps, they are starting<br />
with laws with which they believe everyone can<br />
agree. “To change the culture, you have to engage the<br />
culture,” explains Mike Schouten. “This isn’t a prolife<br />
issue. It’s a human rights issue.”<br />
Because the pro-life movement meets with some resistance,<br />
We Need a Law would like people to ask<br />
their candidates about their stand on the following<br />
three issues:<br />
1. Late term abortion. Abortions are permitted even<br />
after a fetus can survive outside the womb. Instead,<br />
adoption could be a viable option.<br />
2. Sex selection abortion. Developing countries often<br />
make headlines by denying girls the right to education,<br />
or by selling or destroying female babies. Canadian<br />
law allows for babies to be aborted if the parents<br />
want a child of the other sex. Most often, girls are<br />
aborted.<br />
3. Pre-born victims of crime. There are no laws recognizing<br />
life until birth. This means that any crime<br />
committed against a pregnant woman is treated as a<br />
single crime. There is no justice for the unborn child.<br />
After a noon hour rally in Moose Jaw, the Life Tour<br />
moved on to Saskatoon for an evening event and will<br />
be in Vancouver before Election Day.<br />

Casino makes huge profits<br />
By Ron Walter For Moose Jaw Express<br />
Saskatchewan Gaming Corporation casinos in Moose Jaw and Regina are on<br />
track to put $51.9 million profits into provincial government bank accounts this<br />
year.<br />
In first half financial statements the corporation indicates it has used “strong expense<br />
management” to achieve the net income position planned.<br />
Expenses have been reduced by $2.2 million to June 30 with declines in labour<br />
cost variances, printing, postage, communication, advertising and promotion.<br />
Revenues for the first six months of the year fell 1.1 per cent to $62.59 million.<br />
Guest counts increased by one-half per cent over 2014. No breakdown of guest<br />
count changes by casino was provided.<br />
But guest counts were unable to alleviate small average spend per slot guest. And<br />
gaming table revenues fell by $800,000 during the period.<br />
Sask Gaming paid the government $19.5 million to June 30, an increase of about<br />
$1.1 million over 2014.<br />
The Crown Corporation still earned 43 per cent return on equity in the casino<br />
operations. The operation has $12.8 million cash and $11.7 million debt.<br />
