I have one quick follow-up question for Ms Cohen. Are the intended parents legally the parents in Canada? I am wondering about situations where, for example, a baby is born prematurely or someone has to make a medical decision. In Canada, are the intended parents legally the parents from the minute the baby is born? I want to clarify that.
