Today on the Alberta Roundup with Rachel Emmanuel, Rachel interviews Prolife Alberta executive director Richard Durr about a Calgary abortion clinic that’s offering chemical abortions.
Durr says that unlike surgical abortions, chemical abortions are prescribed without an in-person visit increasing the risk for vulnerable and trafficked women. There’s also increased risks of complications to the mother.
Rachel also wonders about the impact on the water supply.
