Abortion should just be a medical procedure.
In Canada, which has no abortion laws at all, all abortions are fully covered by the national health system. In addition real sex education is taught in the schools and female centric birth control is easily availible. This has resulted in the actual number of abortions, not just the rate, falling for the last several years even though the number of women childbearing age is increasing.
Now having said that in Canada all abortions are done early in the first trimester, only 2-3% are done after 16 weeks, and no doctor performs abortions past 20 or 21 weeks except for compelling health or genetic reasons. Third trimester abortions are extremely rare and are only done if the mother’s life is in immediate critical danger because it is safer to stabilize the mother so she can go to term than to introduce the physical trauma of an extremely late term abortion.
And of course being that there are no abortion laws there is also no abortion on demand.
