In Canada, reproductive rights groups are continuing to call on the Minister for the Status of Women to resign. This follows her vote in favor of an anti-abortion measure. While abortion has been decriminalized in the country for nearly 25 years, the motion debated in parliament last fall sought to re-open the debate on the legal status of the fetus. FSRN’s Aaron Lakoff has the story from Montreal.
