Here's a bit of a backgrounder:

October 2009 – Brad Trost, Conservative MP, Saskatoon-Humboldt launches a Petition to Stop Federal Funding of Planned Parenthood:

“Mr. Speaker, it is my pleasure to present in the House today petitions… They are calling upon this House to promote the values they cherish, which are Canadian values in support of pre-born life. They are particularly calling upon the Government of Canada to stop the funding of Planned Parenthood by CIDA, the Canadian International Development Agency, believing that CIDA should be concentrating on dealing with fighting poverty instead of concentrating on destroying human life.”
(MP Brad Trost, Hansard, October 5, 2009)
