Hello Midwifery Staff & Students, I want to share some information about anti-choice planned protests on Fort Garry campus this week. The Centre for Human Rights Research has provided the following information: This week, there will be large anti-choice groups on campus in front of University Centre for several days: * Monday, Mar 25th at 2:45 - 5:00pm * Tuesday, Mar 26th from 2:30 - 4:45pm * Wednesday, Mar 27th from 1:30 - 3:30pm.
