Mulroney tried to pass an anti-abortion law the same year November Rain and Smells Like Teen Spirit were playing at #muchmusic dance parties. Vote Con in Canada and we’ll be right back there. Without good music. #PierrePoilievreIsAMisogynist #music @strombo #RoeRage pic.twitter.com/2hSpJ6O6aj

Like all baby-murder-loving leftists, Mary here is "raging" that an entirely reasonable and predictable Supreme Court ruling took place last year in the United States.
As a result she seems to think its a "gotcha" that in the 1990s a Conservative government tried enacting sensible legislation based on the worldview that murdering your own child is a heinous act that should be discouraged and punished.
Crazy, huh?
What she can't quite explain is her weird temporal attack: yes, music was better before all the good artists died out. What does that have to do with abortion?
Abortion was morally evil in 1991. Abortion is morally evil in 2023 (or 2022 when Mary wrote this). Abortion was morally evil in 1923 as well, not to mention 1823, 1766, 1219, 784, 218, 218 B.C., 995 B.C., 1744 B.C, etc. etc. etc. Murdering your own baby has never not been fundamentally wicked and evil.
The only difference over this entire time period was science and technology: technology made it easier to murder your baby in the same way that sniper rifles make it easier to execute abortion-supporting politicians. Science gave us a deeper understanding of the processes of birth and when life began. In 1744 B.C. they had no idea what a 5 day old fetus looked like. In 1219 you could remove a three week old fetus and have no idea what species you were looking at. Today we know in detail how the two zygotes merge to create life. In other words we have a greater understanding of how the world works, and we have also developed new capabilities to do evil upon the world.
So it's not clear whats wrong with re-instating a piece of 1991 legislation regarding the criminal code. Had Canada been successful back when Nirvana was performing, as many as 953,427 lives could have been saved between 1996 and 2005 alone. That's 1,469,477 potentially saved lives in the 1991-2005 timeframe. (Note that this is only a proxy measure as the statistics do not differentiate between medically necessary abortions and presumably some women would still break the law and hopefully suffer cosmically after the death of their child).
Being "right back" on the side of morality sounds like a good idea, Mary. When can we start?
