July 4, 2019 (LifeSiteNews) — Police are investigating death threats sent to two Canadian independent theatre owners because they are screening the pro-life movie Unplanned on July 12, LifeSiteNews has learned.
Unplanned dramatizes Abby Johnson’s conversion from Planned Parenthood abortion facility manager to pro-life advocate and was written, produced and directed by Cary Solomon and Chuck Konzelman.
As a safety measure, the movie’s producers have now removed from their website the comprehensive July 12 listing of 46 Canadian theatres — independents, Cineplex and Landmark locations — that will be showing Unplanned, Konzelman told LifeSiteNews.
They did so at the request of B.J. McKelvie, pastor and president of Fredericton-based Cinedicon, the Canadian distributor of the film.
McKelvie confirmed to LifeSiteNews that two Canadian independent cinema owners contacted police after receiving death threats they perceived as credible, and that they are “fearful for their families.”
Another Canadian independent theatre owner “has been harrassed to the extreme.”
One of the two owners who contacted the police has cancelled the Unplanned screening, but all the rest “are holding their ground,” McKelvie said.
He did not want to identify the locations, particularly because “it’s a police matter,” he told LifeSiteNews.
The alleged death threats are aimed at independent theatre owners because “they didn’t get anywhere with Cineplex, or they didn’t get anywhere with Landmark,” McKelvie said.

That is just plain stupid. if you don’t like it, don’t go.
Bullit,
It is not the idea that “they” don’t like it and logically should simply not go, it is the idea that because “they” don’t like “they” don’t want us to go either.
It’s called COMMUNISM.

And don’t forget, it is actually Dr. Ernesto Guevara. He was a physician.
Any leftist punk who would make death threats to theatre owners over a pro-life movie that tells the truth about abortion are nothing more than gutless cowards, pure and simple.
What those punks conveniently forget is that making death threats against others is as illegal in Canada as it is in the US. Whoever made the threats will be found out and he’ll get what’s coming to him – a good spell behind bars.
