  • Abortion care is not codified in Canadian law, but our Supreme Court “left it to Parliament to come up with a new abortion law that would balance the rights of women with the state’s interest in the protection of the fetus, without offending (Canada’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms)”. Source

    Since then, because of that decision, no Canadian government has touched abortion and provincial health care covers the cost. But we do have issues with some provinces that have played hardball with abortion clinics (who have no recourse because there is no law on the books).

    I have hopes that IF Carney gets a majority government, and IF he’s willing to listen, we can pressure the Liberal party to codifiy abortion in Canadian law.



















  • Reimer said she was “surprised and disappointed” to see that health care was not included on the agenda for this week’s federal leaders’ debates, despite polling that suggests it is a top concern for voters.

    Heathcare is under provincial control, so if the provincial leaders would get their heads out of their asses they could band together and ask the feds for some help advertising their vacancies.

    As far as extra dollars for healthcare every province has (and will be) receiving extra billions from contracts they negotiated with Trudeau.

    If they spent that money on other things - which they made sure was a prerequisite to signing the deal - it’s on them.
