DESCRIPTION:\n	\n		\n			Chaque été\, le Centre Paul-André Crépeau de droit privé 
 et comparé organise une série de séminaires afin de promouvoir les travaux
  de recherche des étudiants et des étudiantes de 91Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵ et d’ailleurs. Tou
 t le monde est invité à y assister. Pour plus d’informations\, écrivez au 
 centre.crepeau [at] mcgill.ca\n\n			Conférencière: Vanessa Di Feo (Université
  91Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵ)\n\n			[En anglais seulement] This presentation explores the legacy o
 f the seminal 1988 R v Morgentaler decision. Although this case was lauded
  a victory for pro-choice activists across Canada\, it is not without its 
 flaws. Further\, its legacy is questionable when we take a closer look at 
 the state of abortion laws and health coverage in Canada (or lack thereof)
 .\n\n			Comparative in nature\, this presentation is divided into two main pa
 rts. The first part of this presentation explores the patchwork of abortio
 n services that persists across Canada. Upon providing an overview of the 
 fragmented 1988 Supreme Court of Canada decision\, the speaker attempts to
  prove that the legacy of Morgentaler is\, in fact\, hollow through a comp
 arative legal analysis. She does so by exploring a number of cases from va
 rious provinces\, and demonstrates that even where there are victories\, t
 hey are theoretical at best. This is bolstered with statistical research\,
  which illustrates that the very state of uneven abortion access that led 
 to the decriminalization of abortion in 1988 continues to jeopardize Canad
 ian women’s health.\n\n			The second part of this presentation attempts to ex
 plain why the patchwork of abortion services continues to put the lives of
  Canadian women at risk. The speaker considers potential arguments\, and u
 ltimately criticizes Federalism and the Canada Health Act’s funding system
 . This is linked to the negative rights analytical framework set out in Mo
 rgentaler\, which leaves women without recourse. Ultimately\, the speaker 
 explores other potential solutions to resolve the inefficiency of this fra
 mework\, largely based on comparative law and solutions in various legal j
 urisdictions.\n		\n	\n\n
