Abortions rights advocates urge Liberals to turn politics into policy
Higgs, whose office did not respond to a request for comment, accused Trudeau last month of playing politics with the issue of abortion services.
He also noted the provincial regulation limiting funding to abortions performed in hospitals had also been there under the previous Liberal government of Brian Gallant.
Abortion-rights advocates are not the only ones anxious to see how the Liberals will handle the issue.
Campaign Life Coalition has said that it welcomes the news that 46 Conservative candidates identified as being against abortion were elected in October.
