The biggest threat I see for gender justice is not feeling safe even to talk about the harms. We have to push against that in society in Canada. We know that we still have a gender divide. We're doing work right now just on even very simple things, like how safe women feel in the streets when walking. There's a mental load that women carry because they feel less safe. They have to take greater precautions to protect themselves.
I think it's something that we have to recognize as a challenge and continue to think of through a gendered lens: to think about how this would impact and affect women, girls and gender-diverse people and make that a consideration. When we have a neutral way of looking at things or of looking at things as if everybody is going to experience it in the same way, it's sometimes not the case. Intersectionality matters. For Black women, Muslim women and people who have different vulnerabilities and risks, how do they experience what we're putting forward in terms of laws and legislation?
