The pro-life movement has gained unprecedented influence within the Conservative Party of Canada and seeks even more.

Ten allied groups rallied their supporters to buy Conservative Party memberships and become delegates at the party’s recent online policy convention. This resulted in more than 100 pro-life delegates, five times the amount at the 2018 convention.
