Wade <\/em>could likely be overturned.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Minister of Families head Karina Gould <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbc.ca\/news\/politics\/canada-provide-abortion-access-american-women-1.6440238\"><span>said<\/span><\/a><span> in a Tuesday interview that Americans would be welcomed by their northern neighbor to get abortions in Canada if <em>Roe<\/em> is officially struck down.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cI don\u2019t see why we would not,\u201d she told CBC News. \u201cIf they, people, come here and need access, certainly, you know, that\u2019s a service that would be provided.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Gould also said she was \u201cconcerned\u201d for both Canadian and American women.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cOne of the concerning factors here is that there are many Canadian women who maybe don\u2019t live near a major city in Canada, but will often access these services in the United States,\u201d she stated. \u201cI\u2019m very concerned about the leak yesterday. I\u2019m very concerned about what this means, particularly for American women, but also for Canadian women.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>A spokesperson for Gould noted that American women would have to pay for abortions in Canada unless they were covered through insurance.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau also declared his support for protecting abortion following the news that U.S. abortion laws might soon be left to the states.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cThe right to choose is a woman\u2019s right and a woman\u2019s right alone,\u201d Trudeau tweeted on Tuesday. \u201cEvery woman in Canada has a right to a safe and legal abortion. We\u2019ll never back down from protecting and promoting women\u2019s rights in Canada and around the world.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The comments come as the Supreme Court seems poised to overturn <em>Roe v. Wade<\/em>, which effectively legalized abortion in the United States. Since <em>Roe<\/em>, over 60 million unborn babies have been aborted.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Even with <em>Roe<\/em> overturned, about one-fourth of all abortions would still be legal alone with just New York and California. <\/span>This reality has led to speculation that many women will go to one of these states to have the procedure done.<\/p>\n<p>A<span>\u00a0growing number of companies, including Amazon, Citigroup, Yelp, and now Levi Strauss, have also announced they will pay for abortion-related travel.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>A statement from Levi Strauss said it was essential to protect \u201creproductive rights.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cGiven what is at stake, business leaders need to make their voices heard and act to protect the health and well-being of our employees. That means protecting reproductive rights,\u201d the clothing company <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/business\/healthcare-pharmaceuticals\/levi-strauss-reimburse-abortion-travel-employees-2022-05-04\/\"><span>said<\/span><\/a><span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The announcement from Levi Strauss comes just after Amazon made its announcement on Monday.
