In 2005, the latest year for which statistics are available, 97,254 abortions were reported. Clinics and hospitals are not obliged to report abortions to Stats Canada. Therefore, it is unclear how accurate the 2005 figure is. That’s 266 abortions a day or 11 every hour. There have been almost 3 000 000 abortions in Canada since the Trudeau government legalized abortion in 1969.
