🌟 At missINFORMED, we’re committed to advancing conversations on reproductive health that prioritize access, equity, and inclusivity. Our panel, “Imagining the Next Chapter for Abortion Care in Canada,” brought together trailblazing experts and advocates to explore the current landscape and envision future possibilities for abortion care across Canada. Our panelists, Willow Paul, Natasha Hines, Clark MacIntosh, Dr. A.J. Lowik, and Nora Ahmadi, shared powerful insights on the importance of gender-affirming, trauma-informed, and intersectional care. Together, they highlighted key advancements and systemic challenges while fostering solutions for an inclusive future.

Today, the Federal Government introduced new rules to prevent charitable organizations from spreading misinformation about abortion care. This is an important step towards safeguarding reproductive rights and ensuring access to accurate, unbiased information for all. "We commend the federal government for taking this important step," says Meghan Doherty, Co-Director of Policy and Advocacy at Action Canada for Sexual Health and Rights. "We also recognize that policies like this must be paired with improved access to quality public health and education services.”  Action Canada applauds this move, but it’s only part of the solution. We're calling on leaders to also support local sexual health clinics, universal contraception and meaningful investments in comprehensive sex-ed.
