Trudeau was reacting to the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to overturn its 50-year-old Roe versus Wade ruling

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is promising to defend abortion rights in Canada and around the world after what he calls a “devastating setback” in the United States.

She added no country in the world is immune to what is going on in the United States, noting that a majority of Conservatives voted in favour of a private member’s bill last year to outlaw so-called sex-selective abortions. The bill was defeated.The Liberals will work across the government to ensure that women across Canada and the world have access to sexual and reproductive health services, she said.

She said her position is that coercive and sex-selective abortions are wrong, and a Conservative party under her leadership would allow free votes for issues of conscience in the House of Commons. The right to an abortion doesn’t exist in Canada in the same way it was enshrined in Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 decision that had served as a rock-ribbed legal scaffold for reproductive rights champions around the world for nearly half a century.

The Canadian Civil Liberties Association is “deeply troubled” by the decision and the laws that state legislators may be emboldened to pass in its wake, one of its directors, Cara Zwibel, said in a statement.

The leader of the current government uses distraction as a political tool - oh my in New Zealand, alas in the USA... but whatever you do DON'T LOOK BEHIND THE CURTAIN! Misdirection, misinformation, misrepresentation are the tools used by this group.

This ass keeps forgetting he’s the CANADIAN PM…help US

criminal , communist , traitor,

But he just gave a $250,000,000 cheque to a country where abortion is illegal. Just like that... argument is dead.

Fine. He should resign and then go fill his boots.

Why? Nothing else to do here at home?

Captain Carbon Tax to the rescue

What goes on in the United States and the rest of the world is none of his business!

Lol .. he wants to use abortion as a wedge issue for politics

HE NEEDS TO FOCUS ON CANADA. H E L L O 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫 LiberalDumpsterFire

What is Canada to Trudeau? It’s the country that gave him a platform to perform in front of the world. That about covers it.

How much is this going to cost us?

Good. He can quit politics and become an international freedom fighter. Honk honk 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

He can’t even take care of Canada ffs. Does that mean he will send billions to other countries for abortions now....

Uh...Um...not to be disrespectful or anything, but um...Canada? Can you politely tell your leader to butt out? There’s no need to react to this as of yet. I’m sorry at this point we do not need demands of pregnancy tests at the border. Yes, that’s against medical privacy laws.

They just unleashed the raging feminist in him...

JustinTrudeau must protect the rights of Canadians who chose not to get vaxxed, given the extremely high vax rate in 🇨🇦 & fact that healthcare system hasn’t been overwhelmed for months due to Omicron! Unvaxxed shouldn’t have lost their jobs nor banned from travel. I m 3x vaxxed

Ya right and what business does he have telling other governments around the world this is needed

Another grand empty gesture from little potato

Comes with Cape at no extra charge

Is Trudeau going to travel the world groping and impregnating women? He‘s had a great start in Canada

Here comes the Atomic Eyeroll emoji.🙄

No time, he’s busy jet setting around the globe. Fraud.

As per stats Canada there were over 83 000 abortions (2019)!? 83 000 high risk pregnancies or crimes against women forcing pregnancy? I don't think so. Desperate for love&desire,the gift of life has become a consequence,an inconvenience. It's simple get yourself on birthcontrol.

Trudeau is so full of himself 🤮

Nobody in Canada is talking about abortion except the Left.

100K abortions performed in Canada on an annual basis which means 1 in 5 pregnancies end in abortion - seems excessive!

Why doesn’t he start with the US?

Such a hero…his own country in shambles, hated more than any Prime Minister since his father and he believes he can right the world.

The US decision is a Godsend to Liberals who will now use it to distract from their own failures and scandals, with the help of the Liberal controlled media.

Great, how many $billions is he going to piss away this time

And he’s spent millions in other countries doing so. How’s Canada’s healthcare these days🤔

Start in Germany, Poland and other European countries. Your buddy in France allows abortion up to 14 weeks. Are you going to campaign on that too or just the states cause you think that will help you more in the polls. So fake. Start working for Canadians Trudeau!

He should focus on freedom of speech and the right to protest and start right here in Canada?

Trying to distract from the NS shooting and Mendicino! What will be next week's distraction from the pfizerdatadump

He needs to stop worrying about the rest of the world and fix the mess he has made in Canada! People can’t afford to buy groceries and food banks and charities can’t meet the increased demands. Help Canadian farmers and the people trying to work in this country

Don’t believe a word, any sound bite to boost popularity is the only objective. Financial and business skills are apparently not required for the job of PM. Pretty frigging pathetic!

Access to abortions not in jeopardy in Canada and don’t feed me the BS that conservatives are anti-abortion. Trudeau should be focused on controlling inflation. Too many Canadians are finding it too hard to make ends meet thanks to the Liberal’s never ending spending. cdnpoli

This guy does anything and everything for attention

So he's jumped on another bandwagon. Funny how he has gone from hating abortion to supporting it. The flip flop freak strikes again

Oh great he messed Canada up now he has his eyes set on the world.

Stick his nose in others business and cause more sour relations around the planet!

Well…just another EXCUSE for Trudeau to throw OUR money out the door…

He also pledged to plant 2B trees 🙄

I guess alls good in Canada then?

What's he gonna use to defend those rights? His stunning and brave black mask...🤣🤣🤣 An international joke.

Here he goes again. He just can't keep his nose out of the justice system. Not even the justice sytems of other countries. But don't worry, it won't be UNDUE pressure.... Right Trudeau?

'Stunning and brave!'

Trudeau is campaigning for his next job, something a little more high profile so he does not have to put up with Canadians.

Thank you PMJT👍!

Then he should resign and go virtue signal around the world. So tired of Trudeau and the left wing media pretending he actually could do anything of any consequence.

Nothing to defend. Move along.

Tremendous. Now that he’s dealt with passport wait times, health care wait times, runaway spending and deficits and everything else here at home, he can apply his problem solving expertise on a global level. Wow. Self awareness R not Justy.

Lol.

Right now boy wonder needs to get his skinny stupid ass back to CANADA and deal with the economy, the RCMP and stop the Holy Jumper world tour of Humpy. FFS the country is going down the toilet and he wants to become a savior to the world.

He could just resign as Prime Minister and run for U.N. Secretary-General.

Eyeroll eyeroll. How about he stops trying to adopt every American issue and deals with the giant pile of problems Canadians have here? Also stop printing this non-news propaganda, Trudeau's soap boxing isn't respected by our biggest ally

Do you really need to report on his attempts to deflect attention away from Canadian issues?

Hero

Not all states banned abortions.There will always be a clinic available to get an abortion. It might be inconvenient for some but not impossible.The media makes it sounds like the complete opposite.

Use condoms and maybe there won't even be any abortions, just saying!

This guy has zero credibility any where on earth. He buys some allegiance with Canadians $

OFFS. And the real issues in Canada?

Can he please focus on the problems in Canada for just one day 🤷‍♀️

Just imagine if Joe Biden stuck his nose in Canada’s problems and tried to over rule Justin Trudeau. I think it’s imperative that Justin mind his own darn busienss.

Can somebody explain me by which mean the Supreme Court of USA can revise a past decision from same instance ?

Sucks at home. But eager to solve worlds issues and problems. What a joke this guy is.

Good grief. It’s time he started looking after his own back yard and stopped looking into others.

More money gone...

Have mask will virtue signal! Look it's Captain Blackface! Duh duh duh.

While violating all Canadians rights

Devastating set back? Did they not leave it up to each individual state because it’s not an item in their constitution? I am pro choice so no haters just not getting the devastation

Not PM Trudeau’s job, Canada having it’s highest inflation in 40 years, rising interest rates people worried making mortgage & rent payments. Food shortages. You have more pressing issues for all citizens here. Resign Mr PM than do whatever you want on your dime not the taxpayers

Absolutely zero to do with Canada

Look who is talking. Trudeau the pet dog of whitehouse.

The world's superhero lol. He's widely disrespected although behind his back. What a maroon.

Because he can't manage the huge problems that he created in his own country.

Good

Hey Trudeau, WHAT IS A WOMAN? Hypocrite.

Abortion in a foreign country is the issue? Not lying to parliament, not interference in a police investigation, not inflation, not government incompetence, not unscientific mandates, not the rise in sudden deaths? Has the Globe and Mail thought about reporting Canadian news?

Imagine if the under age girls Trudy knocked up couldn't get abortions🤔🤷🏼‍♀️ that would be devastating to his career... Or wait...🤦🏼‍♀️

Around the world? So like India? China? North Korea?

What a fucking welcome distraction from his totally insipid leadership. Wake up canadians. cdnpoli

If he really cared then he would bring forth legislation in Canada so that this will not happen here. But he won't because he consistently uses it as a wedge issue!! TrudeauNationalDisgrace

The world is facing grain and food shortages and Trudeau's solution is to impose a 35% tariff on fertilizer. But hey...let's deal with abortion rights instead.

Trudeau will never intentionally fix the abortion issue in Canada because it's his favorite wedge issue.

justin ’tilting windmills.’

He can do whatever he wants......as a regular citizen. He will be turfed out of PM job for his own 'devastating setbacks'

Why not? He has no pressing issue in Canada to look after.

He was just in Rwanda, did he speak up there?

He should focus on Canada’s problems. Let others this issue or renounce and go for it.

JustinTrudeau What a joke Trudeau. Canada can't take anymore of this Liberal Nightmare

Make no mistake it was a Bad Court Ruling . But who is this Trudeau . He is only a Hero and a Legend in is own mind . Lets worry about Canadians instead of galavanting around the World with melaniejoly Liberal

Well that looks like a full time job, so obviously, he will need to immediately resign as PM of Canada to focus on his new self-appointed role. It is amazing how the Liberals are so focused on events on the US - too bad they don't care about Canadians.

Someone's looking to play the prez in a West Wing reboot. Always worrying about American things. It's easier as he doesn't have to do anything but make empty gestures. We all know he's a pro at that.

You are a phoney Trudeau.

Trudeau interfered yet again in a criminal investigation now back to Trudeau saving women all over the world

MickeyDjuric This isn’t a fakkin issue in Canada! We kill babies in the womb every day

What's he going to do put on a cape and fly around the world lecturing leaders on what laws they should and shouldn't have. He Faux outrage is just to change the channel on his latest scandal we all knew that ruling was coming months ago

Has Trudeau ever keep his pledges I know that usually when he says he has your back - there’s a knife there.

Around the world. Yes, okay Mr irrelevant.

Nice DISTRACTION Trudeau says: 'We did not put any undue influence or pressure' in the 2020 Nova Scotia mass shooting investigation…but ANY political pressure UNDUE or not on Police by government , is ILLEGAL in a democracy..!!!! So Trudeau just BROKE the LAW a “little” again..?

So US laws will now more clearly align with most of Europe and other civilised countries. Oh the horror.

🤮

The UN can have him...

How about he gets back to being PM of Canada vs spokesman for the world

Give me a break, no one wants this utter nonce sticking his nose into their country's business. It's hardly a setback if individual states are given the ability to legislate this, they are democratically elected after all. Right, Herr Dictator?

He's the biggest bodily autonomy rights violator in Canadian history.

Virtue signalling bullshitter. Trying to deflect from his government's scandals here at home.

How is this devastating for Canada? - CPC leader frontrunners have all pledged to not propose new abortion law. - All Supreme Court of Canada judges seems 2b firmly pro-choice. - Private abortion clinics in Canada may soon enjoy surge in demand from Americans; more profits.

Really…have you no real news to publish. Almost wish I hadn’t already canceled my subscription so I could again. Nothing more than JustinTrudeau working a wedge issue to deflect from a scandal.

Well good for him. Meanwhile at home.....

hey over here boss...we are having issues buying gas , holding onto our homes , eating ...can you stop by ...

JustinTrudeau really thinks he matters It’s so sad. TrudeauNationalDisgrace

I believe in choice and he can voice his opinion but he has NO right to TELL the rest of the world what to do. It is the usual virtue signalling from him.

Castro should have kept him in Cuba

Why then has Trudeau not introduced legislation on abortion if he so concerned about it. Could it be that he likes to use abortion as a wedge issue for low information voters?

Canadian media love pics of the muzzled.

Another American story, another chance for the Canadian government to jump on. Canada has had abortion rights since the 80s. They are strong and no government is going to touch them. Around the world? Well you’d have to get them to stop laughing at Trudeau first.

Quit as PM and go somewhere else 'to save the world'

Clearly Skippy has no real understanding of the facts around this. Its not a global issue, its an American issue.

Sorry dude how about preventing the deaths of Palestinians everyday in the West Bank and Gaza

Trudeau needs to mind his own country before trying to fix any others. Put Canada first in all things, that is his job and he is failing miserably.

Trudeau is sending up trial balloons to see what his next gig might be.

Canada is next. If anyone thinks the 'Freedom' convoy and Pierre Poilievre are only about Vaccine mandates, you'd be wrong. Just a matter of time.

If you were ok with vaccine mandates - this is on you. Never let the government tell you what to do with your body

I believe the US decision bans abortion after 15 weeks. Groper Trudeau should clarify his position, does he support full-term abortion?

Would be nice to focus on the domestic economy instead of virtue signalling around the globe

Abortions are not necessary with family planning- lots of money has been spent on such- however, abortions may be necessary when husbands truck around with friends that are not their wives and have a miscue

Why is he not wearing the undermask? So sick of these right-wing COVID deniers.

Guess this means that even more of our money will be spent to better the lives of foreigners in other counties.

Do USA Supreme Court decisions apply globally or something?

Good thing he's busy defending all the current global rights issues. Otherwise he might have to address why he doesn't defend CDN's rights.

This glob of crab was BORN :(

RCMP, Passport office problem and Inflation price are a bigger problems for him right now🙏

This is great news! JustinTrudeau is resigning as Dictator of Canada to become 'Abortion Man'? Just think how much better off Canada would be if he would have been aborted. justintrudeauresigned

This ass hat should be worried about the sheconomy, the shecession and sheflation.

I hate all this fake outrage

globepolitics Jesus, how about doing his job as PM. Not some self appointed saviour.

Would be entertaining to see him go up against the world's strongly Catholic countries. Reality is, of course, that he's simply bloviating again.

This guy has no influence on anything so good luck with that

Will defend abortion but not the unvaccinated in his own country, says a lot about him

be talk

As Canada burns…

He wants so desperately to be God.

Can he pledge helping Canadians fight inflation or is he gonna tax us more while throwing money overseas

Shouldn`t he be focusing on Canada instead of the entire world?

globepolitics Please describe what global authority that would be?

knew he'd be saying something.

To bad his mother didnt feel as strongly about abortion as he does. Isn't it?

Lol wtf? Why is this man always in our business, piggybacking off of Americans politics? Does he want to secretly be an American politician... Our issues is not Canada's issues
