Quebec introduces bill to regulate surrogate motherhood agreements
Quebec Justice Minister Simon Jolin-Barrette has introduced a bill that would create a legal framework for surrogate mothers.
The intended parents would also have responsibilities towards the child, including the obligation to support it from the moment they sign the surrogacy agreement. The surrogate mother would also have to be at least 21 years old and while she could not be paid, she could be compensated for the loss of revenue and certain costs could be reimbursed.
