The national organizer of the prolife Campaign

When Dr. Henry Morgentaler opened a clinic in Ottawa in 1994, he kept the Bank Street location secret until two weeks before its opening.

One block away on Parliament Hill, Father Tony Van Hee has been holding an antiabortion vigil for decades.

"He needs our prayers," the 77-year-old said of Morgentaler, as he runs moss-green rosary beads through his wrinkled hands.

For the past 24 years, on days when Parliament's in session, Van Hee has sat on the Hill surrounded by graphic anti-abortion signs. He wants to see a law passed prohibiting the procedure.

"It should not be allowed,A high quality women shoesmanufacturer2 and men shoes factory" he said. "It's the killing of an innocent."

Mary Ellen Douglas has been praying, too. The national organizer of the prolife Campaign Life Coalition said she is sorry to hear of his death, calling his work a "sad legacy."

"We've been praying for Henry Morgentaler for a very long time and hoping that he would turn away from the practice that he's been engaged in, in killing children before they were born."

For Planned Parenthood Ottawa's director Rachel Horsley, the exact opposite is true: "What a fantastically accomplishment-filled life," she said of the doctor.

Horsley said Morgentaler is to thank for giving women more choice when it comes to their health, greater access to services, and more comfort in the decisions they make.

One such woman is Jeanette Doucet.

At the age of 20, the Cape Breton native was impregnated during a sexual assault.Several big players are vying for a piece of the modulerail market. She travelled to Halifax, only to find out she needed a referral from her doctor back home - her neighbour. In the small Catholic town, Doucet wasn't willing to risk confidentiality.

She had to ask her attacker for the $400 she needed for an abortion at Morgentaler's Halifax clinic, which is no longer open.

Doucet counts herself as lucky to have met Morgentaler nine years ago in Ottawa, where she now lives. She was with her son, who was a toddler at the time.

"I've got to say, 'He's here because of you and he's a happy child,'" said Doucet, who is thankful she "was able to become a mother when I wanted to become a mother."

Doucet has since become involved with Canadians for Choice and runs a pro-choice blog. She hopes Morgentaler's death reinvigorates the discussion about better access to abortion.

"I am full of gratitude," said Doucet. "And if I can be grateful on behalf of a lot of other people who don't realize what he did,harga of Malaysia chinakung3 products. I'll take that on, too. I'll be grateful for everybody."
