Mr. Speaker, that is nothing more than more hogwash. The government has actually pushed women's equality back 20 years, not forward.
Last Thursday protesters were removed, by force, from the Status of Women offices in St. John's, Newfoundland. It is more proof of the contempt the government has for women and women's issues.
Will the finance minister promise that women's equality will get additional funding in his upcoming budget? If he supports women's equality, when will he put his money where his mouth is?
