- specialist 3y agoThat Canadian law does not cover the edge case of first-degree murder for a fetus is a hole in the rules, not permission to kill.
- iinnPP 3y agoI'm not sure what you're trying to say. Do you have more recent information that shows it is now illegal to forcefully terminate the functionality of a 40-week fetus while in the womb in Canada? Calling it a hole in the rules is inaccurate. It's not a person. You can disagree if you want. My post was informational and intentionally lacking opinion.
- specialist 3y agoFFS. The hole in the rules called out, from the OC you linked: A handful of private member's bills introduced in Parliament over the last couple of decades have tried to remedy what seems to be an arbitrary distinction in law. The most recent was in 2016, when Saskatchewan MP Cathay Wagantall tabled Bill C-225, which would have made it a "separate offence to cause injury or death to a preborn child during the commission of an offence against the child's mother."

- iinnPP 3y agoIt's not a hole, it's working as intended. It is desired by groups in Canada who favor abortion rights[0] I'm just replying to the other countries laws and including Canada. Which is related to the article really, more so than many countries. You seem to think I am siding on a negative opinion, but I am not. 0: https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/private-members-bill-violence-against-women-abortion-rights-1.6837875 https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/private-members-bill-violen...
