If Roe v. Wade falls, what happens next in America?
Posted May 5, 2022 6:12 am.
In today’s Big Story podcast, the news leaked Monday night and it was shocking, but not all that surprising. A woman’s right to choose has been under attack for a long time in America, and states have spent the past five years chipping away at access, first with knives and then with axes. But the crown jewel of the anti-abortion movement has always been Roe — and the leaked Supreme Court decision overturning it would also open up pathways to remove other rights once set in law, like contraception access, or gay marriage.
What is happening in America? And what comes next? And will Canada be drawn down the same path in the years to come?
