It's much better in Canada, as far as I've found. The majority of women I know personally with IUDs are in Canada (as am I); both childfree women and those with children I know with them haven't had any problems getting a doctor to insert the IUD. I've found in relation to birth control and to other procedures/prescriptions that doctors here tend to be more willing to let the patient have a voice in their care.
My doctor was absolutely thrilled when I came to him wanting an IUD (I do have a child, btw) and said he wished more women would use them. It appears to be a fairly common sentiment among physicians, around here anyway.
