July 27, 2021 - 2:51 PM MONCTON, N.B. - New Brunswick is failing to live up to its obligations under the Canada Health Act because it continues to make it difficult for women to access abortions, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Tuesday. As a consequence, the federal government is withholding health-care transfers to the province, Trudeau told reporters in Moncton, N.B. "Making sure that every woman across this country has access to reliable reproductive services is extremely important to us, and thatâs why weâve continued ⦠to impress strongly upon the government of New Brunswick how it needs to keep up its obligations under the Canada Health Act," Trudeau said.
