It's not about religion in this instance however, it's about a politician's right to speak for themselves on an issue. Religion has nothing to do with the main issue here, if you ask me. They just chose to put that in the title to gain more attention.

Regardless, it's the same thing.

If we were talking about religion in the way Ka-Pi mentioned it, I suggest it would be more in a manner of: "Trudeau did this because religious preconceptions may blur a politicians ability to vote the "proper" way on an ethical issue such as abortion".

However there is no right or wrong way to vote on abortion, and people who aren't religious may not be pro choice either. The way I see it, the article spun it that way to gain the attention of more viewers, when the real issue here is Trudeau forcing his MPs to vote a certain way. Religion shouldn't have anything to do with it and religious suppression is definitely not what I am taking away from the article.
