Abortion

Abortion is legal in Canada.

You do not need permission of a parent or partner to have an abortion.

You do not need a referral from a doctor to have an abortion.

Mifegymiso (the medication abortion pills) are available free of charge to pregnant persons in Manitoba. You are eligible for medication abortion if you are less than nine (9) weeks pregnant.
