Abortion is a medical procedure resulting in the termination of a human pregnancy and death of a fetus. Abortion in Canada is legal at any point in a woman's pregnancy for any reason, and is governed by the Canada Health Act. Canada is one of only a few nations in the world with no legal restrictions on abortion.

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.
@8DSG5P5New Democratic5yrs5Y
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.
@9M6758BNew Democratic12mos12MO
Neither. Government has no business dictating the rights of women’s health. When did we become having American politicians in the House of Commons.
Pro-life, but allow in cases o rape, incest, or danger to the mother or child and also Pro-choice,but ban after the first three months
Let women who can have children vote. And the remainder of us accept the outcome. Renew vote every 10 years.
@9G5NKD7New Democratic2yrs2Y
pro-Abortion, I understand that abortion is a medical procedure that is only between the patient and the their medical team, and whom the patient chooses to be involved.
@9G4QVFHNew Democratic2yrs2Y
In cases of non-assault situations, both parents should have a choice if the father is still present.
@9D85P6CNew Democratic2yrs2Y
Pro life unless the mother will definitely die in child birth.
@9ZJ57FGNew Democratic5mos5MO
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
@8G3ZC5DNew Democratic5yrs5Y
D social supports should be put into place so that this is no longer an issue.
@99ZF3YXNew Democratic2yrs2Y
Pro-life, the government providing birth control, sex education, and more social services will help reduce the number of abortions
@969285MNew Democratic3yrs3Y
It is up to the people that are involved.
@95YJRW3New Democratic3yrs3Y
MY BODY, MY CHOICE! It should be my choice!
Example:
12 year old: Hey! Can I adopt a baby?
Adoption Lady: No! Your too young!
12 year old girl: I was raped! Can I get an abortion?
Abortion Lady: No. Sorry, it's just too dangerous and that's now illegal.
It should be my choice if I want/need an abortion!
@95PY2J7New Democratic3yrs3Y
its their body and their choice
@937ZYZYNew Democratic3yrs3Y
Only a woman should have a say on this matter
@937XPL5New Democratic3yrs3Y
Pro-life, but the government should not be allowed to enforce anything
@92L9KW7New Democratic3yrs3Y
pro-choice but after a certain amount of time its not an option any more
@8ZST28DNew Democratic3yrs3Y
Pro-life, victims of rape and incest can just give the baby to orphanage if they don't want the baby as to it does not done something wrong
@8ZL7SS2New Democratic3yrs3Y
Pro life, but I think adoption should be made easier for mothers in need who cannot take care of there own child.
@8ZD4CFXNew Democratic3yrs3Y
I don't have a opinion on abortion
@8YXY6DNNew Democratic3yrs3Y
It's against the Bible. God didn't give women the power to give birth so they could get rid of it. It's also a sin.
@8X23Y7XNew Democratic3yrs3Y
Pro-choice, unless there is a very bad reason
@8X23Y7XNew Democratic3yrs3Y
Pro-choice, but if it's something like "My baby is not perfect, sp I don't want to keep them" then too bad!
@8WRKZ85New Democratic4yrs4Y
you should be able to have an abortion until the baby has a heartbeat and starts growing
@8VY4BNLNew Democratic4yrs4Y
I am very religious but also pro choice, i think there should be conditions. like for example rape or threatens the mothers life.
@8VS7GKCNew Democratic4yrs4Y
If you are going to abort the child make sure u don’t wait and do it as soon as possible in the first stage
@8VMRLW4New Democratic4yrs4Y
I am pro-choice but people women should not come to rely on it for being irresponsible. In the case of rape and incest I fully support abortion.
@8VM85YMNew Democratic4yrs4Y
Although I hate the idea of abortion, I do believe women should have the same control over there bodies as men. Every effort should be made to avoid abortion for example
No late term abortion
Assistance to women who choose to keep their babies
Liberal access to and education regarding birth control
Teens should be able to receive birth control without parental consent at any age along with counselling
Adoption options should include support during pregnancy
I believe that babies should be valued by our whole society. Our population growth is too low.
@8VLKTVSNew Democratic4yrs4Y
pro choice, the government has no right to tell me what I can do with my body
@8VLDWFRNew Democratic4yrs4Y
women should have the choice to do what they want
@8VHZ343New Democratic4yrs4Y
Pro life but allow depending on severe situations and age of pregnancy. In general a focus on bettering sex education, birth control, resources for mothers would reduce the number of abortions.
@8VH9R5VNew Democratic4yrs4Y
Your choice maybe it was an accident so you don't want to keep it.
@8TZWW9PNew Democratic4yrs4Y
Pro choice but ban after the first 3 months and increase acces to birth control, security education and other social services
@8TV88B5New Democratic4yrs4Y
Pro-choice, providing birth control, and sex education to reduce abortion rates and fund research into safer less invasive abortion procedures
@8TSKJBVNew Democratic4yrs4Y
Pro-life, but do not believe banning abortion should be the first step in abolishing the option.
@8SWKCNVNew Democratic4yrs4Y
i think its neither good or wrong
@8SW3385New Democratic4yrs4Y
Pro choice but would not get an abortion
@8SMLJTDNew Democratic4yrs4Y
Pro-Choice but have the option for doctors to refuse to have the option to abort
@8RKHCK8New Democratic4yrs4Y
Pro-life, and provide adequate sexual education measures to mitigate the need for abortions.
@8R425KYNew Democratic4yrs4Y
pro-choice yet on the local/provincial government level if they are pro-life/ ban abortion, that government must provide support for that individual and the Child
@8Q679ZZNew Democratic4yrs4Y
I am religious, and as a religious person we already don't support it therefore i am pro-life
@8PZSNFTNew Democratic4yrs4Y
Pro-life, however governments should not ban abortion but heavily promote and subside adoption and other services.
@8PJ7NZYNew Democratic4yrs4Y
I believe that abortion should be allowed only under a severe condition.
@8LT2F2FNew Democratic4yrs4Y
It is not my choice. It is the mothers choice since it is her body and not ours.
My own opinion is that the family should decide with the humans that are having the kid. Also make sure the girl wants go with the process and not have her regret her decision after the process.
@8KDC9K7New Democratic4yrs4Y
your body your choice, whatever the circumstances are you have a choice and no one and say otherwise.
@8K76JSQNew Democratic4yrs4Y
Pro-Choice. The government has NO RIGHT to regulate women's bodies. NONE. The only person allowed to make a decision is the individual carrying the foetus. No Uterus, NO OPINION. Not your body? NO OPINION. Not your life? NO OPINION.
@8H94CWFNew Democratic5yrs5Y
Pro life, but allow those who have been raped to have an abortion
@8F4W8DCNew Democratic5yrs5Y
Pro-choice everyone has a right to there own health
@9WNCQDSNew Democratic6mos6MO
People who are pro-life are stupid and don't understand how pregnancy effects the body. Life doesn't begin at conception and Canada is not, and should not ever be a Theocracy.
@9CS3LQGNew Democratic2yrs2Y
Pro-life, but allow in cases of risk to the mother, rape, or other circumstance. Increase sex education, and contraception availability (excluding birth control).
@9BPTQZ3New Democratic2yrs2Y
Pro Choice. It should be called Forced Birth since thats what it is
@99DBDYLNew Democratic2yrs2Y
There should be free abortions and free birth control
@99CJGGJNew Democratic2yrs2Y
Pro choice, I do not agree with abortion but in cases of rape, incest,dangers, extreme cases should it be allowed, as well as there should be a limit imposed on women for how many abortions can be had in a life time with the exception of the above mentioned( so if you are raped, it would not count towards the limit , but would also be investigated, for obvious reasons)
@97M454KNew Democratic2yrs2Y
Symptoms of miscarriage unless the mother is in danger
@9399XCLNew Democratic3yrs3Y
i think every women should have the choice of their own body, other people shouldnt have the choice own youre own body. i think you should have youre own choice own youre own body.
@8WNHTXHNew Democratic4yrs4Y
Pro-choice but only if abortion is not used as a means to terminate a pregnancy multiple times by a woman.
@8HPF57B5yrs5Y
They do what they want it's their kid
@8P5GKWH4yrs4Y
Pro-choice and pro-life. However the would-be parent(s) need to be educated as to the moral and health repercussions. God gives life, but He also allows us the power to choose.
@887SFZP4yrs4Y
Pro-choice before the third trimester unless in cases of rape, incest, or danger to the mother or child.
@8R8K8WM4yrs4Y
Pro-life, but allow abortion in first month and providing birth control, pregnancy tests, sex education, and more social services will help reduce the number of abortions
@8R875L24yrs4Y
Abortions should be allowed for women. The government has no right to determine if a woman should keep her child or if she should abort it. Only a woman knows herself what she is going through and she doesn't have to share her reasoning with anyone.
@7PTCG385yrs5Y
Pro-choice, but ban after the first two months unless there is danger to the physical health of the mother or child.
@8S2LJ244yrs4Y
Pro-life, and I also oppose abortion for victims of rape and incest, and providing birth control, sex education, and more social services will help reduce the number of abortions
@8S2LJ244yrs4Y
Pro-life, and I also oppose abortion for victims of rape and incest, and providing birth control, sex education, and more social services will help reduce the number of abortions so that they don't happen in the first place
@8L5M7X64yrs4Y
Women should have the choice of whether they abort their child or not. Additionally, taking away their right to abortion would not prevent it. Desperate women will find unsafe ways to abort their child which might lead to infection or even death.
@32D8XZ74yrs4Y
Pro-life, but allow for the first three months, or in cases of rape, incest, or danger to the mother or child

@7PTCG383yrs3Y
Pro-choice, but ban after the second trimester unless there is danger to the health of the mother or fetus
@8VYQC3H4yrs4Y
In between, I believe it is up to the person and the circumstances, it should not be used as a backup plan, perhaps there should be a time limit on the abortion.
@7PTCG383yrs3Y
Pro-choice, but ban after the second trimester unless there is danger to the mother or fetus
@7PTCG383yrs3Y

@7PTCG383yrs3Y
Pro-choice, but ban after the first trimester of pregnancy is completed unless there is danger to the health of the mother or unborn child
@8XK8XXG3yrs3Y
If you are raped if think you should be able to choose if you want the baby or not but if you accidently got pregnant then should have the baby
@8XTW3QC3yrs3Y
Pro-life, but i don't think the government has the right to regulate abortion
@8Y5H9DW3yrs3Y
Pro-choice, I don't believe it is in the best interest of the people to ban abortions outright. However, more should be done to provide quality sex education, free contraceptives, and other social services.
@7PTCG383yrs3Y
Pro-choice, but ban during the final trimester of pregnancy unless there is danger to the health of the mother or unborn child
