 “Challenging Choices: Canada's Population Control in the 1970s”

2021 Visiting Speakers Erika Dyck & Maureen Lux presented a powerful talk about "Challenging Choices" on November 10 -- discussing reproductive politics, narratives of overpopulation, continued limited choices for many (contrasting with media reporting of a sexual liberation & freedom age), and more by highlighting four case studies: Indigenous women & family planning; Individuals with intellectual and physical disabilities & birth control; Men & vasectomies; Teenage women & unplanned pregnancies.
