May Sarah Cardinal sits for a portrait outside the Law Courts building in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada on Thursday, May 25, 2023. Cardinal said she was pressured into having her tubes tied when she was 20. “The doctor told me: ‘There are hard times ahead and how are you going to look after a bunch of kids? What if your husband leaves?' ... I was afraid if I didn’t go through with it, they would be angry with me, and I didn’t feel like I had a say.” (AP Photo/Amber Bracken)
