The Canadian federal election is just a few days away. While some voters have cast their ballots early, many are waiting for Monday, April 28 to hit the polls. Although political tensions between Canada and the U.S. and the ongoing trade war have been major talking points, human rights and access to health care also remain a top-of-mind concern for vulnerable Canadians, particularly women and members of the LGBTQ community.

The repealing of abortion laws caused many to wonder whether the same could happen in Canada, and highlighted areas of access to abortion that need improvement.
