The Canadian Medical Association’s abortion policy defines abortionas the active termination of a pregnancy up to 20 weeks of gestation1. Most facilities calculate gestational age by date of last menstrual period (LMP), meaning that some facilities perform abortions on request up to 22 weeks LMP. In hospitalsin 2017, according to the Canadian Institute for Health Information,30.4% of abortions were performed at less than 8 weeks, 35.6% between 9-12 weeks, and3.2% at 21+ weeks2.There is no gestational age information provided for clinics; however,very few clinics provide abortions past 21 weeks, so we have estimated the actual percentage of abortions at 21+ weeks to becloser to0.66%.³
