Choice Chat Podcast
Choice Chat is a Humanist Canada podcast that confronts the truth about reproductive health in Canada—loudly and unapologetically.
Created by the Morgentaler Committee, this series challenges harmful narratives, replaces myths with truth, and reframes what we’ve been told about abortion, contraception, and reproductive care. No sugarcoating. No shame. Just real talk.
We’re lifting the veil of silence—amplifying lived experiences, exposing the spin that fuels judgment and control, and demanding a future where everyone has the power to choose what matters most - how to shape their own life. Anything less denies the very humanity that makes us equal.
Say the words. Share the truth. Break the silence.
