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.

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

 @9VWJN6Ffrom British Columbia  disagreed…1mo1MO

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?

 @8DNNPCZfrom Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

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.

 @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…4wks4W

Pro-choice

Engaged Abortion

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

 @8T3T55PConservativefrom Ontario  commented…3yrs3Y

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%

 @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.

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)

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.

 @9GYXCN3from Florida  answered…1yr1Y

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

 @8JW33M8from Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

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…4yrs4Y

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

 @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

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

 @9VGGMWSConservativefrom British Columbia  answered…2mos2MO

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

 @8ZZGWP2from Alberta  answered…3yrs3Y

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

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

 @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.

 @8G8D5GZfrom Saskatchewan  answered…4yrs4Y

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??

 @8VRJ7VQConservativefrom Alberta  answered…3yrs3Y

Pro life, but better sex education and easier access to birth control and better support for unplanned pregnancy

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…3yrs3Y

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.

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

 @8DSG5P5New Democraticfrom Quebec  answered…4yrs4Y

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…4yrs4Y

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.

 @9ZN3CDQfrom Ontario  answered…3 days3D

It not our bodies. Those people have valid reasons as to why they want to abort. Some can be Religious, Family Situations or Not Financially ready.

 @9ZLK57Mfrom Ontario  answered…6 days6D

if you want abortion but if the baby has a heart bead you should not have abortion but If you get raped then get abortion

 @9ZJ57FGNew Democraticfrom Ontario  answered…1wk1W

abortion should be legal since if a pregnancy goes wrong her baby won't rot in her belly and the pregnant woman won't die due to rotting

Each women has a right to make the choice that is right for her, her family, the child that may or may not be brought into the world (pro-choice).

 @corafrom Manitoba  answered…2wks2W

Pro-choice

No right to ban

There are several factors to me being pro-choice.

  1. The government has no right to regulate abortions
  2. Children should be able to live in homes where they are loved, not hated
  3. Children should be able to live where they can get support, emotional and financial
  4. Nobody should be forced to give birth to a baby that's a result of rape or incest
  5. A unborn fetus is not the same as a fully born human being
  6. Nobody that's a minor should be forced to give birth to a baby+

 @9YCMSKNfrom Ontario  answered…2wks2W

Im pro life but in cases such as rape, incest or danger to the mother or child you shouldn't abort. if its a money issue the low income parents can receive payments every month for themselves and the parents. I also think that if the mother has severe mental issues that can cause harm to the child the mother should be monitored.

 @9XMKKT4from Saskatchewan  answered…3wks3W

Pro-choice, but only for any and all non-Whites. White people should have absolutely no access to abortion

 @9XCDCNZfrom Alberta  answered…3wks3W

I believe that it should be up to the mother/father and have the ability to get an abortion if they need it/ want it

 @9X9KT5Tfrom Alberta  answered…3wks3W

pro-choice it should be banned after the second semester and it should be allowed in case of rape,incest,or danger to the mother or child

 @9WSS4QBfrom Ontario  answered…4wks4W

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.")

 @9VZVNWJConservativefrom British Columbia  answered…1mo1MO

they should not get rid of abortion pills, for the fact for poor woman who get raped or there baby is un well.

 @9VXMWG9Independentfrom New Brunswick  answered…1mo1MO

Pro choice, however if woman opts to keep the child father should not have to carry burden for 18 years if he does not want to.

 @9VRBTLCfrom Manitoba  answered…1mo1MO

Pro life, but I don't support banning abortion out-right as people would just find other ways of doing it and hurt themselves.

 @9VHDFKZfrom Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

the man should have full say over it and if the baby is still being birthed than he should have no obligation to help it.

Pro-choice and increase sexual education and awareness while making the punishment for rape more severe

Women should have the right to do whatever they please. if they dont want kids. they dont want kids.

 @9VFDMR8Rhinocerosfrom Quebec  answered…2mos2MO

pro-choice, but people should not be allowed to use the option of abortions as a reason to not pratice safe sex and not use birth control or protection.

 @9VCRYRWfrom Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

If it is a Rape, and the Woman in question did not have a choice or say in the matter whatsoever, then she should have the right to abort, but in the case that they were not careful when having sex, and they "didn't" mean to get pregnant, then I believe abortion should not be allowed, as it is a human life, that has been given.

 @9VBL4CNfrom British Columbia  answered…2mos2MO

pro-choice because it should be the women's choice since it is her body but she should tell her partner to also see what they think.

 @9VBJGNBfrom Alberta  answered…2mos2MO

Depends on scenario, victims of rape, and sexual assaults should have access to it, people under a certain age should have access to it but after a certain age you can realize the consequences to non safe sex.

 @9V4V9BFfrom Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

Pro-life, the baby deserves to live his life even if the mother doesn't want him, there's always the option for adoption.

 @9V3H4QTfrom British Columbia  answered…2mos2MO

 @9V33XX5Independentfrom Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

if your just going around getting knocked up they no you deal with but if you were to get raped then that woman should not have to have that persons baby.

 @9TZVN4Cfrom British Columbia  answered…2mos2MO

I personally am pro life but know that it is every individual’s own choice and accept their pro choice decisions

 @9TZC8JDfrom Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

In my opinion abortion is not the best choice but again this should be the parents choice, not the government's.

 @9TGDVKNIndependentfrom Alberta  answered…2mos2MO

Support them but make them take full responsibility for it, people who purposely kill their unborn child by punching or any kind of way should face a crime.

 @9TFJCFXLiberalfrom Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

i do not believe the government has a right to take away something like this. many people can be raped or impregnated at a any age, it is their choice if whether or not the woman is ready to be a mother. for younger children there is a chance of dying whilst having a baby. if you do not have a good living environment and cannot afford a child, it is not wrong to get rid of a child instead of giving it a life it does not deserve.

 @9TFGZ89 from Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

Abortion is a subject that politicians often use to create polarization when they want to distract people from major issues and tip the scales in their favour.

 @9TDCLF4from Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

I believe this discussion is a red-herring to divert us from issues that are more important. Leave the laws as they currently are with this regard and move on.

 @9TD28DQfrom Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

It should be done usually only when absolutely necessary (for example; if the mother is a child with no capability of providing a proper home for the child, if the mother is in no position to raise a child, if the mother was impregnated against her consent. All in all, it's really up to the mother.)

 @9TB7NP8from Alberta  answered…2mos2MO

if they are adult enough to have sex they should bear the consequences n that shouldn't be an option God give life and human should not end it

 @9T7ZCPPfrom Alberta  answered…2mos2MO

I think that it's their choice if they feel that they're ready for a baby they should have their child, but if they don't feel ready or if it could have a bad affect then its you choice to ave the abortion.

 @9T7YDLJfrom Alberta  answered…2mos2MO

if they don't want a child no matter what the situation rather underage or ect they have the choice because its there body.

 @9T7YB6Mfrom Alberta  answered…2mos2MO

If you don't want that child then you can get ride of it and if it's grown too much then wait till it's born then give it to the adoption centre if you choose

 @9T3Z9TVfrom Ontario  answered…3mos3MO

Pro-life for me and my partner, Pro-choice for everyone else. However my partner will have the final say

 @9SYHP68from Ontario  answered…3mos3MO

I think it depends of the case, if the person who's pregnant it is because of abuse, she has the desition. But if it is a woman who knows and who has the age for have a baby she obligatory needs to have the baby, is her desition if she wants to stay with the baby or not (the baby is going to an orphan).

 @9MVF48Hfrom Alberta  answered…6mos6MO

i say that there should be non but if need to be done then yes but if there is no good thing to get then NO its a baby

 @9MP7X29Conservativefrom Saskatchewan  answered…6mos6MO

because of situations such as rape, I believe it should be allowed, but controlled. Only if it is necassary.

 @9MK22XMfrom Ontario  answered…6mos6MO

Pro Choice- the government has no right to ban it. It’s the Choice of the parents if they want to keep their child or not because of any reason.

 @9MH8DW9from Ontario  answered…6mos6MO

no, because you'd be killing a child, even if its not born, its still a living creature. in cases of rape and stuff, then the mother can birth the child and put it up for adoption. if either the mother of the child are at risk of death, then if possible they would get surgery to save the both of them... if not, then that would be the only exception

 @9MGW6GHfrom Manitoba  answered…6mos6MO

I think it's not ok to abort your child because it was specially made and it's really sad to end a human life so early on, so I think it's ok to have your child and then put it up for adoption, but abortion in my opinion is not an option.

 @9MFMQ7QLiberalfrom Ontario  answered…6mos6MO

This is a way of damaging myself, so I won't take a risk and give myself to someone who doesn't love me, I would try my best not to put myself into the situation where I need to face decisions of "abortion"

 @9MCJ3PYConservativefrom Ontario  answered…6mos6MO

Im pro life in every case but if a man rapes a women they shouldn’t have to endure the 9 month long pain and after effects of birth especially if they are under 18 which most cases of rape pregnancy is then again some women might lie about getting raped to just kill their baby so its a very tough decision

 @9MBNX7KIndependentfrom Ontario  answered…7mos7MO

I would say abortion is ok because it technology the parents choice if its rape or incest its their choice if they wanna be a loving mother or have that regret of throwing away a child u have in the future .
