The case appears to be the first instance of criminal charges against a doctor accused of sending abortion pills to another state, at least since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022 and opened the door for states to have strict anti-abortion laws.

    So would Canada (me), we need more Docs and the US training is good enough for us to give them a license.

      To be fair to US doctors (at least in my area), they are among the world’s best trained and knowledgable. It’s just the system they’re forced to work in that sucks. Saying the US doctors are “good enough” doesn’t give them nearly enough credit. Don’t blame the doctors for the faults of the system they’re forced to work under.
