PETERBOROUGH, Ontario, August 22, 2013 (LifeSiteNews.com) – A priest is considering pressing charges against an angry woman who drove him away from a public sidewalk during a pro-life demonstration with a jet of water from her garden hose.

“Her husband turned on the hose, and she sprayed it on me,” Father Ron Meyer told LifeSiteNews.com.

Fr. Meyer, who is pastor of Our Lady of Lourdes parish in Cardiff, Ontario, was participating in a Show the Truth campaign on Thursday in Peterborough along Chemong road. The pro-life strategy aims at showing the truth of abortion to the Canadian public through the use of large graphic images.

“As pro-life people we put Jesus’ message of love and forgiveness into practice," he said. "But maybe there is a time to push back, so that [abortion activists] realize they can’t do whatever they want to us and get away with it.”
