Trudeau to raise abortion laws with Pence amid final push to ratify new NAFTA

But Trudeau says he also wants to talk about what he calls the backsliding of women's rights in the U.S. with Pence, who is a well-known opponent of abortion.

Some states have recently passed anti-abortion laws, attempting to force the U.S. Supreme Court to reconsider its decision in the landmark 1973 Roe vs. Wade case that provides constitutional protection for a woman's right to choose. Trudeau says he is concerned about how women's rights have been affected by conservative movements in Canada, in the U.S. and around the world.Trudeau is to welcome Pence before they meet with the Canadian Council for the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement.Trudeau said earlier this week that Canada intends to align its ratification process with the time frame of the U.S. Congress.

Pence is also to take part in a wreath laying ceremony at the National Military Cemetery before returning to Washington.

JT... Ummm Mr. Pence SIR PENCE... Sonny sit down, shut up and sign the damn document... Then it's SELFIE time and I know that you love that.

Pence to raise SNC-LAVALIN scandal with JustinTrudeau.

Urgh ! Who let him in .

Justin Trudeau needs to deal with issues in Canada & keep his nose out of US politics. Abortion has nothing to do with NAFTA. He will embarrass Canada on the global stage once again.

AdrianMaxford Don’t say anything...I wanna see how that works out for him.

Trudeau is a piss-ant to Mike Pence.

Don't go there junior...

Pence will destroy that clown.

Ah yes because pence is in control of state law.😑

Maybe phone China about our citizens. The USA is not our business.

Does Trudeau not realize that Pence is a devout Christian? He might get quite the earful in return .

None of Trudeau's business to be lecturing the VP USA about such a thing. Quit trying to be everybody's social conscience. Teach by example. We endorse the right to choose.

Oh yes, they will get along just like The devil and the holy water on this one...will definetly smooth things over...

Cdn_Eliana What a loser...

Yes, the two subjects are closely related....

That will work well. I'm pretty sure.

Oh, that will change EVERYTHING

Like Trudeau cares about women! What a fake! He treated his own MP’s like dirt!

Trudeau to stick his foot in his mouth once again.

He needs to clean up his own backyard. Keep nose out of the USA business

He needs to mind his own business...

That's more pandering then helpful.

JT is an idiot!!! Cannot wait until October to have this national and international embarrassment voted out!!

JustinTrudeau needs to stop meddling into other country affairs. Trudeau cannot even run either his party or govermment in ethical, open and transparent way.
