In Canada, surrogates do not receive payment for their services due to the altruistic nature of the Canada’s surrogacy laws governed by the Assisted Human Reproduction Act. This legislation strictly prohibits commercial surrogacy in Canada, restricting compensation solely to reimbursement for expenses directly related to the surrogacy process. This legal framework aims to make surrogacy as a selfless act of compassion and generosity, where surrogates are motivated by the profound desire to help others create families rather than financial incentives. Emphasizing altruism fosters a supportive environment between surrogates and intended parents, enriching the deeply meaningful journey of surrogacy in Canada.
