Occasionally couples have difficulty conceiving and
       experience infertility as a result of medical
  treatment, injury or, medical condition. Some couples
 have used up years trying to conceive naturally or using
reproductive technologies like IVF. When those strategies
   do not achieve the desired result, having a child thru
              surrogacy might be an option.
Surrogacy is an arrangement in which a woman agrees to
become pregnant for the purposes of gestating and giving
birth to a child for others to raise. She could be the child's
      genetic mother or not, dependent on the sort of
                  arrangement agreed upon.
Surrogacy is legal in Canada. The Assisted Human
Reproduction Act (the AHRA) is federal legislation which
sets out those activities that are permitted and the ones
             that are restricted altogether.
Couples exploring the surrogacy option may discover that
 their solution to parenthood may include a surrogate, a
gamete donor and possibly a sperm donor as well. In this
        case the legal parts will include a surrogacy
   agreement, donor agreements and a declaration of
parentage to ensure that intended parents' names alone
         appear on your child's birth registration.
If a woman has had her very own children and wishes to
   carry a kid for another family, becoming a surrogate
      mother in Canada is a legal and viable choice.
There are 2 differing kinds of surrogacy, traditional and
 gestational. Both are governed by the AHRA.. Intended
parents have to know the AHRA allows surrogacy but that
a surrogate may only be remunerated for her reasonable
       out-of-pocket costs related to the surrogacy.
 Currently, all of a surrogate's reasonable out-of-pocket
     expenses might be reimbursed as the Canadianl
       government has yet to fully define this area.
 Compensation or an offer of compensation to a woman
   for acting as a surrogate is prohibited under law and
                 subject to serious penalty.
In spite of these limitations, with the necessary safeguards
 in place, it's possible to enter into a successful surrogacy
    relationship which complies with Canadian laws, as
   evidenced by the many children born in this way each
                              year.
