CARAQUET, N.B. — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau assailed New Brunswick's premier and other conservative leaders on Thursday, calling out the provincial government's position on abortion, LGBTQ youth and climate change.
He said Progressive Conservative Premier Blaine Higgs doesn't respect a"woman's right to choose." The prime minister was referring to a New Brunswick regulation that prohibits public funding for abortions administered outside hospitals, a rule that was blamed for the closure earlier this year of Clinic 554, a private care provider in Fredericton.
Higgs's office did not return a request for comment. But the province has said that two-thirds of all abortions in New Brunswick are administered with a pill — Mifegymiso — which is publicly funded. Surgical abortions are also funded by the province and offered at two hospitals in Moncton and one in Bathurst.
