====== PBP 318H: Mandatory Ultrasound / Waiting Period Laws ====== From [[https://www.itstartsrightnow.ca/ultrasound_laws|RightNow]]: Legislation seems to lower abortion rates--> "In fact, according to [[https://www.itstartsrightnow.ca/ultrasound_laws|recent studies]], women in American states with some sort of ultrasound disclosure law were 25.4% less likely to get an abortion than women in states with no ultrasound disclosure law. What does this mean? If every province instituted such a law, abortions could potentially decrease up to 25.4% across Canada, or by over 25,000 every single year."
