Current action
Left to Die
Babies born alive after a failed abortion deserve the same care as any other newborn.
Action plan
At times, an abortion procedure can result in a child being born alive.
In these situations, Alberta Health Services (AHS) policy currently allows the medical practitioners performing an abortion to deny medical care to the infant and leave the baby to die, sometimes over the course of hours or days. This abhorrent practice of infanticide must end.
Alberta’s UCP government has the authority to rewrite AHS policy to require that infants born alive after a failed abortion receive the same degree of care as any other newborn child.
A baby’s right to life and medical care should not change because he or she was born during an abortion.
