The case, R. v. Morgentaler, was a case in which three doctors, including Dr. Morgentaler set up a clinic where they performed abortions for women who did not have the approval from a therapeutic abortion committee of an approved hospital. Abortions done without this approval were considered illegal. The Supreme Court of Canada concluded that the abortion provision in the Criminal Code was unconstitutional because it violated section 7 in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
