Men and women of every age – even a few childrens – were on hand to protest alongside Bertrand in Lahaie Park, which was chosen for its symbolic location across from the Morgentaler Clinic.

Many carried grisly signs; others opted for clever slogans such as “Epp, Harper: Je fais ce que je veux avec mes oeufs,” (What I do with my ovaries is up to me.) After the rally, protesters marched down the hill to Berri Square.
