The Ontario government is promising to soon make an abortion pill free for all women in the province.
Mifegymiso, known as RU-486 outside of Canada, is a combination of two drugs, mifepristone and misoprostol. After years of study, Health Canada approved its use as a non-surgical option for abortion up to seven weeks. It became available to the Canadian public in January and costs $300 to $450.
According to the Ontario health minister’s office, the government is in conversations with the drug manufacturer, Celopharma, and hopes to begin covering the drug in the near future. Women with a prescription will be able to get it for free at a pharmacy.
The announcement, made in the Ontario budget released Thursday, was welcomed by reproductive rights advocates.
Lyndsey Butcher, executive director of the Shore Centre, a sexual health resource centre in the Waterloo, Ont, region, said she was thrilled by the news.
Even though the abortion pill was technically made available to Canadians in January, access to it has been limited, Butcher said, and women in her area have had to go to abortion clinics in Toronto to obtain it.

How do you get a tiny little rabbit and a big elephant in the same shot together without it looking weird? It was a rough challenge, but the results, that’s what makes it unique.” — Rich Moore, Director.

We really enjoy taking photos and showing you guys what we look with our birthday suit on (yes, we are totally and completely exhibitionistic). Although we are not expecting any feedback, we are so happy when you give us love by liking and reblogging or posts. So you can imagine that it feels a bit sad when we find our pictures without any credit to us. Unfortunately that happens at least once a week and that is why we had the watermarking frenzy last week. You can help us out by reblogging our watermarked pictures, credit us and if you find any of our pictures straying, please let us know.
