In 2015, UAlberta Pro-Life held a rally featuring a 700-square-foot display with photographs showing developing and aborted fetuses. While there were no reports of actual violence — plenty of shouting and cheering, though — police and university security intervened several times, according to court documents. In response, UAlberta Pro-Life filed a complaint with the school’s protective service, alleging the student code of conduct had been broken. While that process was unfolding, UAlberta Pro-Life applied in January 2016 to hold another rally similar to the first one. It was wrong to ask UAlberta Pro-Life to pay for security, the anti-abortion group argues, since the bad behaviour came from the other side.
