- Abstract
The article discusses the history of the women's movements and pro-choice campaigns in the maritime provinces of Scotland and Canada in the 1970s and 1980s. Also cited are how abortion became a question of one's morality, right to privacy, and the rights of the unborn child in the countries, and how the maritime provinces maintained their conservative attitudes towards abortion and the procedure amidst the liberalisation of other parts of the countries.
