Our Canadian values and morals are not shared with the children and families
that participate in birth tourism. Therefore they represent our country in a
condition that Canadians are not recognized as.
Security:
Families who participate in birth tourism may not have the best intention at heart.
a) When the child is born in Canada the some families fly back to their country of
origin and raise the child without Canadian morals and values.
Healthcare:
Canadians who seek medical care will be wait listed if the increase of birth
tourism worsens. Healthcare was created for permanent residents and citizens of
Canada who contribute to Canadian taxes not for birth tourists.
Economy:
A quarter of a million dollars in unpaid hospital bills from non Ontario Health
Insurance Plan (OHIP) cardholders dating 2009 to 2013 were recorded at
Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre.
Government:
Creates confusion with the process of immigration in Canada.
a) Families believe that their newborn Canadian baby will be able to sponsor
the family after the child turns the age of 18.
b) Families will live in Canada after the birth of their child, resulting in illegal
immigration.
