Yes.
You asked how we can achieve MDG 5 with this as an issue. We have to be very careful here. There are women who don't have access to basic maternal, newborn, and sexual reproductive health care, and in Canada we risk having this discussion turn completely to one of abortion.
We have to be careful that we don't get sidelined into this trap. We have to be very strategic as women. We need essential health care delivered at the household and community levels so that women and their newborns and children are not dying. The discussion on abortion needs to happen as well, but we can't forsake one for the other.
