What is LifeSiteNews.com ?

LifeSite is a web portal dedicated to issues of culture, life, and family. It was launched in September 1997. LifeSite news and information is widely used by other services and by leaders and grassroots people across North America and internationally. Main components

• 1. LifeSiteNews.com - Widely circulated daily news reports on important developments in Canada, the United States and around the world, with a special focus on United Nations matters. Its purpose is to provide balance and more accurate coverage on culture, life and family matters than is usually given by other media. Available by free daily email subscription and on LifeSite.

• 2. The Interim Newspaper - Life and family newspaper. On line version is placed on the site approximately 2-4 weeks after hardcopy print version is completed. Includes archive of past articles from September 1997 to the present. The Interim can be received and read sooner by subscribing to the printed version. Known as one of the best pro-life newspapers in the world.

• 3. Campaign Life Coalition - Canada's national pro-life political organization which also acts internationally, especially at the United Nations. Information on National and provincial offices of the organization, monthly CLC National News (with archive from September 1997 to present). Press releases and various CLC documents are archived on LifeSite. CLC is an important source of detailed candidate and party information on life issues during Canadian elections.

LifeSite also produces original sub-sections on Stem Cells, Pregnancy help, UNICEF, NSSM 200, fetal development and more. All sub-sections are updated and new ones produced as resources permit and new developments arise. LifeSite Principles

• 1. Accuracy in content is given high priority. News and information tips from readers are encouraged. Valid corrections are always welcome.

• 2. LifeSite emphasizes the social worth of traditional Judeo-Christian principles but is also respectful of all authentic religions and cultures that esteem life, family and universal norms of morality.

• 3. LifeSite's writers and founders have come to understand that respect for life and family are endangered by an international conflict. That conflict is between radically opposed views of the worth and dignity of every human life and of family life and community. It has been caused by secularists attempting to eliminate Christian morality and natural law principles which are seen as the primary obstacles to implementing their new world order.

• 4. LifeSite understands that abortion, euthanasia, cloning, homosexuality and all other moral, life and family issues are part of the international conflict affecting all nations, even at the most local levels. LifeSite attempts to provide its readers with the most useful and up-to-date information on this conflict.

• 5. LifeSite attempts to dispel confusion and ignorance, enable constructive dialogue and help informed decisions to be made and appropriate actions to be taken for the good of all.

Who Produces LifeSite?

The site is affiliated with Interim Publishing and is also closely associated with Campaign Life Coalition (CLC), both organizations being headquartered in Toronto, Canada. LifeSite networks regularly with leaders and other organizations around the world.

Interim Publishing, founded in 1983, produces The Interim, Canada's national life and family newspaper and other publications related to life and family issues.

Campaign Life Coalition, founded in 1978, has been one of the first pro-life organizations to emphasize the international dimension of attacks on life and family. Along with a couple of other groups it pioneered pro-life lobbying at United Nations conferences. CLC president, Jim Hughes, is currently also vice-president of the International Right to Life Federation.
