Dear Editor:
Regarding Promises, Promises (April 27, North Shore News), thank you for defending the Canadian public from troublesome distractions. I'm currently distracted by news that female fetuses are being selectively aborted in Canada. I was once a female fetus myself and my conscience is proving to be a troublesome distraction. Nearly every day, genes are discovered that control aspects of intelligence, personality and other traits. Canada's abortion policy will not hinder anyone who wishes to make use of such information. If this is not a "real issue of the day," could you please tell me what is?
