The most recent federal election saw members of the anti-abortion movement throw their support behind dozens of candidates in order to get them elected, with the hopes that maybe one day they would pursue legislative restrictions on abortion access. One political group founded by young anti-abortion activists, called RightNow, worked tirelessly since the 2015 election to help elect candidates they identified as pro-life. Many pro-choice politicians and advocates pointed to their efforts as a sign that women’s rights could be at stake depending on the outcome of the election.

Guest host Rachel Browne talks to Alissa Golob, co-founder of RightNow, and Joyce Arthur, executive director of the Abortion Rights Coalition of Canada.
