Go Canada!
Posted on July 14, 2008
The Ontario Ministry of Children and Youth Services have created a 12 panel of experts to address fertility and adoption at a governmental level. The panel will provide advice to the government on: 1) improving access to fertility treatments and monitoring fertility so that women would learn if they might have problems getting pregnant, and 2) improving Ontario’s adoption system.
In Ontario the rate of infertility is 1 in 10 for women under age 30 or 1 in 6 for women over 30. In 2006 there were 850 adoptions through the Ontario’s children aid societies. Statistics not much different than in the US.
Why can’t the US create something similar? Is Ontario more concerned about their future population or are they just more compassionate than those in government here? Do you think something similar would ever be established in the US?
