Following the leak of a Supreme Court draft opinion indicating the court’s intention to overturn Roe v. Wade, Canada’s minister for families, children, and social development has said that her country welcomes Americans who wish to cross the border for abortions.
“I don’t see why we would not,” Minister Karina Gould told CBC News. “If they, people, come here and need access, certainly, you know, that’s a service that would be provided.” Gould also raised concerns about how Canadian women seeking abortions would be affected if Roe v. Wade were overturned.
