Dead fetuses for fuel: no longer only in Britain!

It appears that the mortal remains of aborted and miscarried babies are in high demand as a fuel source.

VICTORIA, British Columbia, April 23, 2014 (LifeSiteNews.com) – The British Columbia Health Ministry has admitted that the remains of babies destroyed by abortion in B.C. facilities are ending up in a waste-to-power facility in the United States, providing electricity for residents of Oregon.

The province's Health Ministry said in an email to the B.C. Catholic that "biomedical waste" shipped to the U.S. to be incinerated includes "human tissue, such as surgically removed cancerous tissue, amputated limbs, and fetal tissue."

"The ministry understands that some is transferred to Oregon. There it is incinerated in a waste-to-energy plant," the email stated.

The ministry said that contractors handling the province's "biomedical waste" follow "health and safety protocols, as well as federal, provincial, and local regulations."

It pleases the medical establishment to label fetal remains "medical waste", even though there are few Canadians who would consider them to be so. The reason is political, of course. If they admit that the remains of an aborted fetus are in any way anything other than garbage, of any more consequence than a used surgical sponge, that opens up questions of morality that the ProChoice liberal crowd don't want people asking.

That's not a good enough reason to display such disrespect for human remains as to burn them for fuel. Its despicable, and it is unseemly for our society to tolerate it.
