Make the mother carry the child to full term and give the child away.

 @98R9SGBfrom Washington  commented…2yrs2Y

Abortion should be banned unconditionally, as it is morally detrimental to Canada and a blatant and hitleresque butchery that is worse than slavery and like it must be abolished.

 @9ZHBQHX from Manitoba  disagreed…4mos4MO

It seems that you are using the murder argument. A fetus is scientifically considered a parasite for 27 weeks, making it not living. You can't kill something dead.

On the other hand, if the birth presents a danger to the mother, then killing it is self defense. If someone broke into your house and tried to stab you, you wouldn't sit there and let that happen, would you?

 @8HQW577from Ontario  answered…5yrs5Y

i dont agree with it at all and it shouldnt be alloud, you got pregnant you deal with it

 @9VWJN6Ffrom British Columbia  disagreed…6mos6MO

Pro-life, and I also oppose abortion for victims of rape and incest

Engaged Abortion

You must be a man. It takes 2 to get pregnant, yet a man can just walk away. Also your statement is dumb what about rape?

 @5FXV3J3Conservativefrom British Columbia  answered…4yrs4Y

pro choice, but people should have to pay out of pocket for such procedures.

 @9ZHBQHXfrom Manitoba  disagreed…4mos4MO

people should have to pay out of pocket

If someone was raped, should they have to pay out of pocket?

 @8DNNPCZfrom Ontario  answered…5yrs5Y

i do not agree with abortion. Because after all, it is still my child, even if i do not know whether it is my husband's child or being raped, i still carry the baby because them have my blood drop. if i had an abortion, is mean i just killed someone.

 @8PPLF2TNew Democraticfrom Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

Abortions ought to be legal, however, Males ought to be held to much more account for the abortions.. Unwanted Pregnancies are 99% the fault of the Male, therefore, after being found responsible for 3 abortions, that Male must undergo a vasectomy and be barred from starting a family later on. - IF WE ARE TO BE SERIOUS ABOUT THIS.. we must take serious actions. Males are inherently irresponsible.. and are left to go thru life totally unaffected by their choices, while society destroys that female for it. - this is completely unfair, unjust and barbaric.

 @8T3T55PConservativefrom Ontario  commented…4yrs4Y

Pro life because logically a fetus is a living human from conception onwards because they have their own unique DNA. There is no other distinction to make between a fetus and a born human. You can’t justify abortion without justifying murder if you think it though. No human should be able to choose to kill another human. A fetus has the right tho live even though it’s inconvenient. 100%

 @B428HZKfrom Manitoba  disagreed…1mo1MO

Pro-choice

Because they have their own unique dna? By that logic every plant is a human being because they have unique DNA

 @5BZLJGQfrom Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

Pro-choice, but include men in the process, because men don't have a say in the matter. When in the early stages of a pregnancy and there is a common knowledge that the man does not want a child, but woman does then she becomes fully responsible for that choice.

 @9WNCQDSNew Democraticfrom Saskatchewan  commented…6mos6MO

Pro-choice

Engaged Abortion

Men don't have a say in the matter bc it's not their god damn body being used

 @8MRPD4V from British Columbia  commented…4yrs4Y

Pro-choice, but ban after the first three months

Neither pro-life nor pro-choice

Ban after first three months

Prioritize access to lower income group while the rich should pay for the procedure

Provide sex education

Minors: parental notification except in cases of child abuse

Mandatory embryo screening & 24-48 hr waiting period

Providing support to pregnant people so they won’t be forced to have an abortion just to hide their sexual activity

Since fathers are also responsible for raising the child, they should have a say over the decision, except in cases of suspected rape and abuse. However, they must also pay child support (The government can help pay a part of it if they can’t afford it)

You should be able to get an abortion if you want to. The baby isn’t alive until it’s born so suck away

Pro choice. On demand. Free at point of service. Access in all provinces mandated by federal government. Abortion is healthcare and shouldn’t be denied.

 @9WSS4QBfrom Ontario  answered…6mos6MO

Pro-choice

Pro-Choice

Banning abortion is banning equality; forcing a woman to follow through while men are incapable of the same physical accountability is sexism.

If you only support abortion in instances of rape/incest, you are reinforcing the idea that in order for a woman to have a right to HER body, someone else has to violate it first.

Providing free birth control, sex education for all, and more social services is an investment in the cumulative health of this country.

Keep religion out of politics. If you don't want an abortion, don't get one. You do not get to decide what is best for me, based on your beliefs.

Religious freedom = "Hey, that's against my religious beliefs, I can't do that." (Not, "Hey, that's against my religious beliefs, YOU can't do that.")

 @8KG8JBJConservativefrom British Columbia  answered…4yrs4Y

Taking away someone's life is not your decision to make, even as their mother. If you cannot support your child or for whatever reason, you do not want it, then consider your options and receive a consultation with a professional. There are so many other options, such as open and closed adoption (wither you want to stay in contact and be able to see the child in their future or want nothing to do with them), direct placement adoption (you can pick out a family best suited for you child), agency adoption (letting an adoption facility take care of your child's placement in a new home,…  Read more

Let the lady do what she has to do, if it’s a harm to her or the child then why keep it? If you’re broke and struggling in life, why keep it? If the spouse wants to have kids, then they should state so way before the relationship starts. They should also have a job to support said lady and child.

 @8G296CFfrom Ontario  answered…5yrs5Y

Pro-life, life begins at conception meaning abortion is murder. Promote alternative services like birth control and adoption

 @8F89P6Nfrom British Columbia  answered…5yrs5Y

If she was raped and had a kid then put the kid up for adoption and the government should pay her to raise the kid instead of killing them

 @9BQBNYGfrom Ontario  answered…2yrs2Y

Pro-life, but allow in cases of rape, incest, or danger to the mother or child. However if the women is allowed to choose to abort the child, then the man should be allowed to choose weather or to not pay child support

 @8ZMTC6Nfrom British Columbia  answered…3yrs3Y

 @8RQ8454from Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

Women should have the right to have an abortion for certain reasons. For example, if the woman is raped she should have the choice. If someone is pregnant and is unable to provide for the child and not able to give them a safe and healthy life then they should an abortion for it would be the best decision. I am a firm believer in pro-choice but in a different matter, I think if women are using abortions as a form of birth control then they shouldn't have the right to abortions.

 @9VGGMWSConservativefrom British Columbia  answered…7mos7MO

Pro-choice, but ban after first 4 months and provide birth control, sex education and de-stigmatize and perhaps encourage adoption.

  @Conservative-from-Canadafrom California  commented…2yrs2Y

Pro-choice, but ban after the first three months

Pro-choice, but ban after the first three months. Prior to 1969, inducing an abortion was a crime under Section 251 of the Criminal Code. The maximum penalty for a doctor, or anyone else assisting a woman to end her pregnancy, was life. Then and today, abortion has remained a divisive moral and political issue. It is condemned on one side by “pro-life” advocates, who seek to defend the unborn child; it is supported on the other by “pro-choice” advocates. In 1990, the House of Commons voted in Favour (140–131) of a new law. Introduced by the Progressive Conservati…  Read more

Pro-Choice, Should not be used as a form of birth control and should not be taxpayer funded unless it is for a medica issue

 @8G8D5GZfrom Saskatchewan  answered…5yrs5Y

Pro-life, but increase the government subsidies and support for child-bearing women and single mothers.

 @96Z72XKfrom British Columbia  answered…2yrs2Y

Most people shouldn't be having kids to begin with. Pro-abortion, not life.

 @9724JDTfrom Kentucky  disagreed…2yrs2Y

Shouldn't be having kids? I know overpopulation is a problem, but this is an extreme overreaction, and a very bitter view on life. And come on, killing a baby is murder, but a few months earlier and it's fine WTF??

 @8F67WHTfrom British Columbia  answered…5yrs5Y

Pro-Life, but acceptance to aborting immigrant children, race mixes, rape and incest.

 @8HXLYW3from Ontario  answered…5yrs5Y

well I think it would differ on if have been raped and in that yes I would but if it's not in that area then no I don't think it's right.

 @8VT69SFfrom Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

It should be up to the father. He's the one who has to pay for the child. If there is no father, then pro choice.

 @8VGFR2Cfrom Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

 @8KHSXYDfrom Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

Pro choice, but use fetuses in Stem Cell research and other fields wherever possible.

 @8F2KYGZfrom Ontario  answered…5yrs5Y

Pro-life, and provide more alternative services to prevent people from being in that situation

 @8DSG5P5New Democraticfrom Quebec  answered…5yrs5Y

pro choice, birth control, sex ed, and more social services to avoid the need for them as most teen pregnancies are from expected abstinence meaning that no one teaches them what to do and how to avoid pregnancy, nor do they provide the means for birthcontrol. and birth control should be free. however, no abortions after three months save for health reasons or the baby dies in the womb.

 @8GXZGKGfrom British Columbia  answered…5yrs5Y

PRO CHOICE, and providing birth control, sex Ed, and more social services. AND ESPECIALLY, SUBSTANTIALLY lower the cost (or being free) of contraceptives (condoms/birth control) and making the morning after pill completely FREE.

 @8JYZZGFfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

Both. The woman should take into consideration the life of her child no matter what, but still have a choice to have an abortion.

 @B4P9YP8Conservativefrom Alberta  answered…4 days4D

Pro-life, but motherhood should be supported to reduce abortions. Government should not be allowed to ban.

 @B4P95F3from Ontario  answered…4 days4D

Pro-choice until the burden of unplanned pregnancy and/or single parenting is shared more equally among the mother and father.

 @B4P4WM8from Alberta  answered…4 days4D

Pro-Life, but I can't tell someone else what to do with their body, if majority says yes, then law should be yes (democracy)

 @B4MXP8TLiberalfrom Ontario  answered…6 days6D

Pro choice but should be a fee if it is not a product of assult(police report for proof) or life threatening (Dr's orders)

 @B4KSP23New Democraticfrom Ontario  answered…1wk1W

Being pro choice is being pro life. You need to fix your verbiage. It should say “pro abortion rights” or “against abortion rights”

 @B4GBZT7from Ontario  answered…2wks2W

Pro-choice, but ban after the first three months and limit abortion number per person (excluding cases of rape or incest)

 @B4G2C9Kfrom Alberta  answered…2wks2W

i feel if it is a child of assault they should be able to get an abortion but shouldn't just get one because of your own actions and if mother is in danger

 @B4F9SGDfrom Ontario  answered…2wks2W

Pro-life but still believe that God gives us free will to choose. Women should have to go through counselling for a set time to provide them the best truthful option, including spiritual, before they are allowed to terminate the fetus. They cannot terminate after 3 months/the first trimester, but must carry to full term and give the baby up for adoption.

 @B4F7S2Bfrom Saskatchewan  answered…2wks2W

i think if you have been raped you should be aloud to get an abortion because who would want to have a kid with someone who raped you and may have taken your innocents.

 @B4DQHBRfrom British Columbia  answered…2wks2W

As a Christian, God made humans in his image, in the beautiful world that they have been sent to, So I DO NOT support abortion.

 @B4DKRSZfrom Alberta  answered…2wks2W

In the middle, abortion is okay under absoulte necessary reasons but if it is for no reason abortion should not go through. I believe there should be hearings for those would would like abortions

 @B4DJJ58from Quebec  answered…2wks2W

I think that it depends on the stage of the child's development, however any cases of rape and like wise instances should be pro choice.

 @B49YZG3from Alberta  answered…3wks3W

I am pro-life but I don’t believe abortion should be banned or criminalized. I feel that the issue is very polarizing but that it should be met with compassion and love.

 @B49S5T9Conservativefrom British Columbia  answered…3wks3W

I am Pro-Choice. Abortion in Canada has been decriminalized for over half a century, and is protected by the section 7 of the charter. Regardless of what your stance is, Canada will stay pro choice so the question seems irrelevant

 @B493NFWfrom Ontario  answered…3wks3W

It depends, if the mothers life is in danger should the pregnancy proceed, abortion is right. If the parents don't want the child and they will clearly neglect the child after birth, abortion is also OK. Otherwise no.

 @B48VY3Bfrom New York  answered…3wks3W

Pro choice but we need frame work in place to help limit the number of abortions and we need to examine if some women are in need of several abortions and why they need so many.

 @B46LSRCfrom Saskatchewan  answered…4wks4W

Pro-Choice, abortion shouldn’t be used as birth control and is a terrible thing. However making women have kids they don’t want will lead to abuse and neglect

 @B46D4XSfrom British Columbia  answered…4wks4W

Pro life, but allow for cases where the mom and child are in danger AND provide birth control, sex education, and more social services.

 @B44YLVYfrom Alberta  answered…4wks4W

I don't believe in 'siding' on this issue per se, and feel strongly that the focus on unwanted pregnancies should start including the male involved. Make it illegal for him to abandon a baby.

 @B44PDF3from Ontario  answered…4wks4W

Pro choice but it should not be used as a contraceptive. Accidents happen but repeating these accidents is very wrong. 2 strikes and you’re done unless it’s rape, incest, contraceptive failure or danger to mother.

 @B3WGW74from Alberta  answered…1mo1MO

the choice of whether or not to carry a child to term is the choice of the woman involved and I have no capacity to make this kind of desicion

 @B3VMZZGConservativefrom British Columbia  answered…1mo1MO

Pro-choice, and women should be able to choose whether or not to have a child, especially in cases of rape and other forms of SA.

 @B3NXBH7from Ontario  answered…1mo1MO

I feel like it's wrong because of what I have learned your just killing the living child because once you connect like this the child is already alive.

 @B3FQZNNfrom Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

Pro-choice. WTF? How can you even ask? I can't imagine our country following the American way. Also, women should get a double vote on that.

 @B3BXZRZfrom Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

i don't think abortion should be illegal but i think there should be a 18+ age limit and if you have a abortion or miscarriages under the age of 18 you should be charged

 @B3BXTM8from Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

pro life since if you cannot or do not want to take care of the child you should put them up for adoption.

 @B3BK36Bfrom Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

Provide birth control, sex Ed, more social services and counselling for those considering abortion. No abortions after 3 months unless risk to mom/ baby.

 @B36LMM7from Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

From my point of view, only women should choose about this topic. Men cant choose over women in topics they will never suffer

 @B36DLLRfrom Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

Pro choice, providing easy access to sex education, social services, birth control options to reduce abortion numbers , but also if someone has more than 2 abortions due to non medical reasons then they pay for it or get tube's tied or forced birth control. Shouldn't be funded by taxes

 @B353N4Nfrom British Columbia  answered…2mos2MO

Pro-life, but with exceptions for rape, incest, and endangerment, and also provide measures, programs, and services to reduce unwanted pregnancies

 @B353543from Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

 @B32B7G5Liberalfrom Alberta  answered…2mos2MO

Pro-choice, with the government providing resources to reduce the number of abortions and support in the case of rape, incest, or risk, but more opposed to abortion being used as a birth control.

 @B2ZMLQPfrom Idaho  answered…2mos2MO

Pro-choice, but ban after the first three months or allow in cases of rape, incest, or danger to the mother or child

 @B2Z7HFHfrom Prince Edward Island  answered…2mos2MO

I do not support abortion but I understand there are certain scenarios. I believe adoption is the best solution for most circumstances.

 @B2Z3ZRPfrom Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

Pro-choice, which is also in support of "life" and hence pro-life. The correct terms here are ANTI-CHOICE vs PRO-CHOICE. I support the life of the mother and her right to make choices about her body.

 @B2YZZ9TConservativefrom Alberta  answered…2mos2MO

I think that if you are going to engage in sex but dont want a kid you should take all of the proper precautions so that you dont end up pregnant. If you end up getting pregnant and are in a solid relationship and didnt take proper precautions then i think if you can lay down to make the baby you can stand up to raise the baby. I think abortions should only be allowed in rape cases or if you arent in the right place in life such as being too young.

 @B2YWMKSConservativefrom Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

If we let abortion become legal in Canada then we are killing. I moment life in conceived the person counts. If you commmint abortion YOU ARE KILLING!!! It is a sin.

 @B2XM8X6from Alberta  answered…2mos2MO

In cases where the mother is safe and can care for the child abortion should be discouraged, because Birth Control is an option. But in cases where birth is unsafe for 1. the child, 2. the mother, or 3 the mother was sexually harmed or raped abortion should be a choice.

 @B2XCVYKanswered…2mos2MO

Ban after the first three months and allow in case of rape, incest, or danger to the mother of the child

 @9LXDZSK from Maine  answered…2mos2MO

 @B2SZWGYConservativefrom Alberta  answered…2mos2MO

Pro-choice, but it should be banned after 3 months. However, victims of rape and incest should be allowed them as long as there's proof.
