The Abortion Rights Coalition of Canada (ARCC) is the only
nation-wide political pro-choice group devoted to ensuring
abortion rights and access for women. We formed in October
2005 to carry out political and educational work to support
reproductive rights and health.
ARCC is Canada’s “voice for choice.” Check out our Vision and Mandate for more about what we stand for and what we do.
Our diverse coalition consists of pro-choice groups and
individuals across Canada working to represent all Canadian
women.

March 2013 - Motion 408: The
Pretender. Mark Warawa's Motion 408 is actually a tool
designed to re-open the abortion debate in Canada, and
not to condemn discrimination against females. (PDF version)
January 2013 - The
Benefits of Decriminalizing Abortion - Canada is the first
country in the world to prove that abortion care
can be ethically and effectively managed as part of
standard healthcare practice, without being controlled
by any civil or criminal law. Canada’s success is a role
model to the world.
December, 2012 - Motion 408 and sex-selection abortion: Pretending to care about women (from Rabble.ca). An anti-choice Conservative MP's call to "condemn discrimination against females occurring through sex-selective pregnancy termination" is ironic in light of the Conservative government's record of institutionalizing discrimination against women.
