Concerned about sex selection abortions in Canada, Dr. Rajendra Kale, who the article described as “interim editor-in-chief of the Canadian Medical Association Journal” has proposed that doctors not tell pregnant women the gender of their babies until 30 weeks, when it is too late to abort.
“Kale pointed to research in Canada and the United States indicating that immigrants in certain ethnic groups, including people from China, Korea and India, selectively abort female fetuses: couples who have two daughters are more likely to have a son as their third child than would be excepted if left to chance.”
