Part of Mary F. Bishop fonds
Sub-series reflects Mary Bishop’s interest in and writing about the topic of abortion, both historical and contemporary. The sub-series mostly comprises Bishop’s accumulation of newspaper articles reflecting perspectives on abortion access covered in news media from the 1960s to the 1980s. It also reflects Bishop’s research and published writing on the subject of abortion; perspectives within the Roman Catholic Church for and against abortion; abortion statistics in Canada; and medical information on abortion.
Records include newspaper clippings and magazine articles; reports on the subject of abortion; communication on abortion by pro-life movements (e.g., pamphlets, newsletters, articles); draft articles authored by Bishop on abortion; as well as some briefings, memorandums, press releases, and correspondence between Canada members of parliament.
