I actually think that the networking opportunities in rural Canada are very different for men versus women. By choice, my husband golfs. He curls. He's the one who takes the boys to hockey practice. He has that social networking. I'm at home. I think we need to somehow increase these networking opportunities that allow women to be able to engage not only with each other but with men as well so that people realize the potential that every candidate has.
My work as mayor for 14 years.... As I said, I was doing some really incredible things even here on the national level with rail safety. I still have people who say, “Really? You did rail safety work? We didn't know that.” As I said, we just have to be able to create these events and these opportunities where we can do the outreach together.
