According to Statistics Canada, the nation's birth rate plummeted to a record low 1.26 children per woman in 2023. That is below the 2.1 minimum needed to maintain viability as a nation. Governments have only lately begun to pay attention to the disastrous implications of this trend. In the past, we have lived under the false security that any shortfall could be made up by increased immigration. It cannot!

Furthermore, in our secular quest for securing rights over responsibilities, we have permitted the loss, since 1969, of over four million citizens through abortion. CHP Canada has championed a reversal of this trend by strengthening the family and advocating ‘Adoption over Abortion’ and has proposed practical solutions to this tragedy.

Studies conducted by the C.D. Howe Institute and the Fraser Institute confirm that there are greater financial, economic and social benefits to be gained by shifting the priority in population management away from immigration and toward domestic growth.
