Some Canadian surrogates are refusing to carry children for Israeli clients in light of the Gaza war, a standstill disproportionately impacting gay men. The ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine is influencing Canadian surrogacy services, with agencies reporting that their surrogates are increasingly unwilling to carry children for Israeli clients, particularly gay men seeking surrogates due to limitations at home. Sally Rhoads-Heinrich, head of Surrogacy in Canada, noted that many surrogates have outright declined to work with Israeli clients, some citing objections to “genocide” and others expressing concerns for the babies’ safety in a volatile region.
