So if 100,000 women abort yearly, and only 3800 children are adopted(both internationally and domestically), can you not see where the discrepancy is? I mean even if you tripled the adoption number you would still have a whole lot of babies without homes.

However, those numbers do not support your position. Your adoption numbers do not show how many prospective parents were waiting for adoption. Additionally, the fact that international adoptions are included is misleading as one of the reasons is the availability of infants from overseas is higher than domestically. I would suggest these numbers support the fact that there is a dearth of infants available for adoption in Canada. The discrepancy is opposite to what you suggest.
