Why do I care what your government has currently done?

Canada's hasn't. You do realize that the US isn't the only country in the world?

Yes, I do. Wiki says Canada has no restrictions on abortion whatever, and this is the result of some sort of legal vacuum on the issue after old laws got struck down. In other words, a situation not too terribly different from our own, so your objection appears moot. As I was saying: there is no totally neutral position on the issue. Either your government allows abortion to some extent--in which case it is at least partially privileging one POV--or it bans it almost entirely, favoring the other. Leaving it up to the individual is not being impartial, but a clear victory for the pro-choice. It's a tribute to your troll-fu that I'm even typing something this obvious.
