Huh. I was expecting higher. Well, I don't imagine it's changed by too much in four years. Canada population 33,000,000... probably fair to assume around half of those are women, which is 16,500,000. That comes to an abortion rate of one in 170 women, ignoring the even rarer serial abortions... No, I can't imagine that having much of an impact. It's just not enough abortions to be statistically significent on it's own. At most it's one of many contributing factors. http://www.abortionincanada.ca/stats/Annual%20abortion%20rates%20pdfs/Canada%20abortion%20rates,%201988-2005.pdf
