What is your stance on abortion?

Abortion is a medical procedure resulting in the termination of a human pregnancy and death of a fetus. Abortion in Canada is legal at any point in a woman's pregnancy for any reason, and is governed by the Canada Health Act. Canada is one of only a few nations in the world with no legal restrictions on abortion.

Pro-life, but the government has no right to ban it.

 @95N6GWJConservativefrom Alberta  answered…3yrs3Y

I believe everyone has the choice to choose but not to use as a form of birth control and that everyone should have sex education

Pro-choice if the mother's life is at risk and all other options have been explored (such as adoption or father is willing to take care of child).

 @8TW4RVMfrom Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

Pro-Life, however I do not believe the government has the right to ban it.

 @8QMN2WRPeople’sfrom Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

Pro-life, but allow danger to the mother of the child

 @8PYHZKSfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

Pro life but allow in cases to save the mothers life

 @8NW7V4Jfrom Alberta  answered…5yrs5Y

Abortion is murder but a world with 60 million fewer leftists has social benefits.

 @8NW7CS2from Ontario  answered…5yrs5Y

Could care less,

 @99GXLG8from Ontario  answered…2yrs2Y

Abortion should be available but openly looked down upon because people should stop seeing it as a get out of jail free card for their bad decisions. Rape and incest should be fully legal but the person shouldn't wait to the last second.

 @88LK76J from Michigan  answered…4yrs4Y

Pro choice but only because of population control

 @8P9ZTNM from Wyoming  answered…4yrs4Y

Abortion should be an individual state's rights issue when it comes to restrictions and being legally sanctioned.

 @88LK76J from Michigan  answered…3yrs3Y

Pro choice but only to control the human population.

  @BestPoliticsIN from Indiana  answered…4yrs4Y

Pro-life, except in cases of rape, as in all other cases the mother chose not to use protection

 @88LK76J from Michigan  answered…5yrs5Y

Pro choice but only for population control.

 @Paulsechristanswered…4yrs4Y

Pro-eviction, allow eviction of child instead of abortion.

  @RichardYRodgers from Maryland  answered…5yrs5Y

Politically, pro-choice. Personally, pro-life. The government has no right to ban it, and providing birth control, sex education, and more social services will help reduce the number of abortions.

Donald Trump nominates Pam Bondi as the next Attorney General

Former President and 2024 Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has announced his intention to nominate former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi as the next Attorney General of the United States, should he reclaim the presidency in the upcoming election.Bondi, a prominent figure in Republican politics, served as Florida's Attorney General from 2011 to 2019. She gained national attention for her legal battles on issues such as health care reform, consumer protection, and opioid abuse litigation. Known for her steadfast support of Trump during his presidency, Bondi also served as a key adviser during his first impeachment trial, where she defended his administration against accusations of abuse of power.In a statement released by his campaign, Trump praised Bondi’s “unwavering commitment to justice” and her “track record of standing up for everyday Americans against the abuses of Washington’s elites.”“Pam Bondi has been a fearless advocate for the people, and she embodies the principles of fairness, accountability, and the rule of law that are sorely needed to restore trust in our justice system,” Trump said. “She is the right person to lead the Department of Justice into a new era of integrity and excellence.”While Bondi’s nomination has been met with applause from conservative circles, it has also reignited criticism from Democrats and ethics watchdogs. Her acceptance of a $25,000 donation from the Trump Foundation in 2013, which coincided with her decision not to pursue an investigation into Trump University, has drawn scrutiny in the past and resurfaced following the announcement.Democratic leaders have already voiced opposition, questioning Bondi’s ability to lead the Department of Justice independently. Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) called the nomination “a political power play” and urged a focus on “restoring integrity, not entrenching partisanship.”

The data says the US economy is strong. Swing-state voters disagree.

The US labour market has remained strong even while inflation has plunged from its 2022 peak. In September, the unemployment rate fell back to 4.1 per cent — higher than last year but still historically low. Even so, some warning signs have flashed for the economy. The number of Americans pursuing a second job is rising. So is the number of people unemployed for 15 weeks or longer. Credit card delinquencies are up, as people burn through cash handed out by the government during the pandemic. “People don’t feel as secure now,” said Paul Isely, an economics professor at Grand Valley State University in Michigan. “Even if lots of other markers in their life are better off, they know that they are consuming past their means, whereas before it was hidden by the fact that they had these excess savings.”Please use the sharing tools found via the share button at the top or side of articles. Copying articles to share with others is a breach of“Here’s the problem: inflation is the rate of increase and [that] has slowed, but the public’s focus is on the absolute price,” the president of Western Michigan University said. “It takes a lot for the price level to come down. That would be a recession and deflation, so it’s not quite clear you really want that.”For residents in the state’s most populous area — spanning Detroit, Warren and Dearborn — everyday costs are now much higher and still rising. Inflation jumped to almost 10 per cent in 2022 and was still above 3 per cent as of August, according to federal data.That has left housing-related expenses up 36 per cent since Biden entered office. Petrol is more expensive than under Trump. Grocery prices have risen 25 per cent in the past four years.
