Reproductive Justice New Brunswick hasn't added a story.

Please help us ensure the people of New Brunswick have access to safe abortion on demand. 


Reproductive Justice New Brunswick (RJNB) is a collective of individuals from across New Brunswick dedicated to ensuring publicly funded and self-referred abortion is available in the province. We demand the repeal of NB Regulation 84-20, Schedule 2 (a.1) of the Medical Services Payment Act which requires two doctors to sign off that the procedure is “medically required” and that it must be performed in a hospital by an OBGYN. As a result, the people of New Brunswick have unequal access to abortion services as compared to the rest of Canada.

The Morgentaler Clinic in Fredericton, New Brunswick’s only public reproductive health clinic is slated to close on July 18th 2014, resulting from this restrictive provincial legislation. As a result, New Brunswick is in a crisis situation.

The current provincial government, as well as the official opposition, refuse to take action. The current barriers to abortion set in place by the Government of New Brunswick are not only unconstitutional, they are dangerous; when abortion is restricted or difficult to access, health and wellbeing declines.

Reproductive Justice NB has begun an effort to lease the existing Morgentaler Clinic in Fredericton. The collective is in discussion with the building’s owners to enter into a lease agreement and further explore options to encourage family practitioners who support a person’s right to full reproductive services, including the right to abortion. The estimate cost of the lease agreement is $100,000.

While securing a lease agreement is a bandaid solution and does not automatically mean New Brunswickers will have improved abortion access, it does give the people of New Brunswick a fighting chance to access their rights under the Charter of Rights and the Canada Health Act.

Please consider helping Reproductive Justice New Brunswick reach this important goal.

Every donation, however large or small, is one step closer to ensuring reproductive choice in New Brunswick. Unless this oppressive regulation is overturned, New Brunswickers will not have equal access to abortion services. If Reproductive Justice NB is unable to raise the full $100,000, all money raised will go towards renewed efforts to overturn the Medical Services Payment Act.

Aidez-nous à sauver la seule clinique d’avortement dans les Maritimes

Justice reproductive Nouveau-Brunswick (JRNB) est un collectif de personnes du Nouveau-Brunswick œuvrant pour le financement public des services d’avortement et pour un accès aux services sans référence partout à travers la province.

Nous réclamons l’abrogation du règlement NB 84-20, annexe 2 (a.1) de la Loi sur le paiement des services médicaux du Nouveau-Brunswick. Ce règlement exige que deux médecins certifient par écrit que l’intervention est « médicalement nécessaire » et qu’elle doit être effectuée dans un hôpital par un spécialiste en obstétrique ou en gynécologie. Conséquemment, les personnes du Nouveau-Brunswick ont un accès inégal aux services d’avortement comparativement aux autres provinces canadiennes.

La Clinique Morgentaler de Fredericton, la seule clinique privée de santé reproductive, prévoit fermer ses portes le 18 juillet 2014 en raison de cette législation provinciale contraignante. Résultat : le Nouveau-Brunswick est en situation de crise. Le gouvernement provincial actuel, ainsi que l’opposition officielle, refusent d’agir.

Les obstacles à l’avortement mis en place par le gouvernement du Nouveau-Brunswick ne sont pas seulement inconstitutionnels, ils sont dangereux : lorsque l’accès à l’avortement est limité ou difficile, la santé et le bien-être sont en déclin.

Justice reproductive NB a entamé des démarches afin de louer la Clinique Morgentaler de Fredericton. Le collectif est en discussion avec le propriétaire de l’édifice afin de conclure un bail et explore différentes options afin d’encourager les médecins de famille qui appuient le plein accès aux droits reproductifs, y compris le droit à l’avortement. Le coût d’un bail est estimé à 100 000 $.

Bien que l’obtention d’un bail reste une solution court terme et ne garantit pas automatiquement que les Néo-Brunswickoises auront un accès accru à l’avortement, ceci donne aux gens de la province une chance de se battre pour le respect des droits établis par la Charte des droits et par la Loi canadienne de la santé.

Merci de bien vouloir envisager d’aider Justice reproductive NB à atteindre cet important objectif. Chaque don, qu’il soit petit ou gros, nous rapproche de l’option d’avoir des choix en matière de reproduction au Nouveau-Brunswick. Tant que cette réglementation oppressive ne sera pas retirée, les Néo-Brunswickoises n’auront pas un accès égal aux services d’avortement. Si Justice reproductive NB n’est pas en mesure de collecter le plein montant de 100 000 $, tout l’argent recueilli sera alors utilisé pour financer des efforts renouvelés en vue de modifier la Loi sur le paiement des services médicaux.
