El parlamento canadiense rechazó condenar el aborto selectivo por sexo

La India no ha logrado revertir su desigual proporción de varones y mujeres: millones de niñas están siendo abortadas anualmente. Y ello no es por falta de mensajes sociales progresistas o por ausencia de retórica feminista. Políticos, activistas, educadores suman sus voces en un clamor compartido: no aborten a las niñas. Pero la prédica no ha funcionado.
La mayoría de los lectores de BioEdge e IBIS News no viven en India y no están sujetos a las presiones de esa sociedad. En países como Estados Unidos, el Reino Unido o Australia, podríamos incluso presumir que nunca apoyaríamos el aborto selectivo por sexo, ¿verdad?
No estemos tan seguros. La socialmente ultra-progresista Canadá acaba de tener la oportunidad de rechazar la selección de sexo y la desperdició. Su parlamento votó abrumadoramente en contra de un proyecto de ley que condena la selección de sexo. Esta es la noticia:
Según las Naciones Unidas, "se cree que alrededor de 140 millones de mujeres están siendo ’desaparecidas’ en todo el mundo, como resultado de la preferencia por el hijo varón, lo cual hace de la selección de sexo con prejuicios de género, una forma brutal de discriminación". Hace diez años, las agencias de la ONU, incluyendo el ACNUDH, UNFPA, UNICEF, ONU. Mujeres y la OMS publicaron un documento de posición condenando esta creciente eliminación de las niñas.
El Fondo de Población de la ONU declaró el año pasado que la selección del sexo tenía graves consecuencias para las sociedades. “El aumento en la selección del sexo es alarmante, ya que refleja el lugar degradado en que se ubica a mujeres y niñas. El desequilibrio de género resultante también tiene un efecto perjudicial en otros ámbitos sociales. Ya hay estudios que lo vinculan con el incremento de casos de trata y violencia sexual".
No obstante, en una de las mayores incongruencias de la política moderna, esta semana el parlamento canadiense votó abrumadoramente en contra de un proyecto de ley que prohíbe los abortos selectivos por sexo.
Efectivamente, el proyecto de ley C-233, presentado por la diputada de Saskatchewan, Cathay Wagantall, tipificaba como delito "que un médico practique un aborto sabiendo que está fundado exclusivamente en el sexo genético".
Perdió por un margen de 248 a 82, con los liberales, Bloc Quebecois, NDP y Green Party, todos votando en contra. Los miembros del Partido Conservador tenían libertad de voto por parte de sus dirigentes, y la mayoría se opuso, pero no su líder, Erin O’Toole. La ministra sobre asuntos de la mujer, Maryam Monsef, calificó el proyecto de ley de “peligroso”.
El problema de fondo, por supuesto, es el aborto. Independientemente de las opiniones de los parlamentarios sobre el "génerocidio", creen que un voto en contra del aborto selectivo por sexo conlleva un voto en contra del aborto. Y eso es impensable. "El debate ha terminado", declaró la Sra. Monsef: “Las mujeres son las únicas que controlan sus cuerpos y sus opciones de atención médica. No es este un lugar para que los políticos intervengan".

Trump posted repeatedly on social media about Indiana, naming individual senators and threatening primary challengers against anyone who voted no, while Vice President JD Vance went twice to Indiana to meet with lawmakers.

Trump’s political allies tried to turn Indiana’s vote into a loyalty test, mobilizing supporters to pressure holdout Republicans. The Club for Growth and a new group led by a handful of Trump presidential campaign veterans aired ads threatening to oust incumbent senators who voted against redistricting. Turning Point USA, the group founded by Charlie Kirk, vowed to back those primary challenges and hosted a small rally at the Indiana Statehouse last week.
Much of Trump’s ire was focused on Senate President Pro Tem Rodric Bray, the Martinsville Republican who had long insisted the Senate didn’t have enough votes to pass new maps. Bray announced after the vote failed that under Indiana Senate rules, the chamber can’t take up the maps again during its 2026 session.

Leising said she had voted for Trump three times. But she was unhappy with the president’s efforts to pressure Indiana into scrapping and replacing its congressional maps as part of a nationwide arms race ahead of next year’s midterm elections.
“I wish that President Trump would change his tone. He needs to be more positive about what he needs to address for ’27 and ’28. Why does he need to have a Republican majority in ’27 and ’28? What is he going to do next?” Leising said.

She also said redistricting advocates’ efforts ultimately backfired, hardening opposition in the Senate.
“You wouldn’t change minds by being mean. And the efforts were mean-spirited from the get-go,” she said. “If you were wanting to change votes, you would probably try to explain why we should be doing this, in a positive way. That never happened, so, you know, I think they get what they get.”

Jean Leising spoke at a breakfast this fall at her 8th grade grandson’s school. Hours later, when she was set to give him a ride home from basketball practice, he bashfully told her that his entire team had received text messages about her that day — “and they were all bad.”

Recounting the moment to CNN shortly after she joined 20 other Republican state senators in rejecting President Donald Trump’s redistricting push, Leising said she laughed the moment off with her grandson — but that it ultimately led to her opposing the president.
“Boy, when I got home that night, that’s when I decided,” said Leising, a 76-year-old grandmother of eight, first elected to the Senate in 1988. “I was angry. So the next day, I said, ‘I’ve got to talk about this.’ Because this is over the top. This shouldn’t be the way it was.”

“But that was the beginning,” she added. “It only got worse from there.”
It was clear on Thursday that a pressure campaign waged by the White House and its allies had backfired. A state that Trump won by nearly 20 points in 2024 gave him a massive political black eye, rejecting a push to create two more GOP-friendly US House seats that could have helped Republicans retain the House majority in next year’s midterms.
Several Republican senators noted on Thursday that constituents opposed a mid-decade redrawing of US House maps and that they questioned the wisdom or the precedent of joining the national redistricting battle. But a number of Republicans, including people who voted for the president three elections in a row, also gave deeply personal reasons over the last several weeks.

Sen. Mike Bohacek has a daughter with Down syndrome. He was offended by Trump’s use of a slur for people with disabilities, in a Truth Social post deriding Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, and said that Trump’s “choices of words have consequences.”
Sen. Greg Walker, who represents former Vice President Mike Pence’s hometown of Columbus, said he was among the senators targeted by swatting attempts in the weeks leading up to Thursday’s vote. While law enforcement has not publicly linked the swatting or other threats to a political motive, Walker said he felt voting yes would reward wrongdoing and set a dangerous precedent.
Sen. Greg Goode, whose town hall in Terre Haute this fall revealed massive public opposition to mid-decade redistricting, said the new maps would splinter communities with similar interests. He also criticized “over-the-top pressure from inside the Statehouse and outside,” as well as “threats of violence, acts of violence.”
“Whether we realize it or not, whether we accept it or not, the forces that define this vitriolic political affairs in places outside of Indiana have been gradually and now very blatantly infiltrated the politi
