Canada has no abortion laws.
Canada is the only country in the western world without abortion legislation. Only China and North Korea are in our company.
The mission of WeNeedALaw.ca is to build a groundswell of support from across Canada for abortion legislation.
Persephone was born premature this year at Grand River Hospital. Canadian law says that she was not a human being until she was born. Had she waited until her due date to be born, she would not have been considered a human being until then. Was Persephone not a human being all along?
Does such a law make sense? Support Motion 312 to make our laws correspond with scientific fact.
