It sounds as if the sponsor of the bill is intending this bill not to be celebratory but to encourage action and to mobilize communities. I think this amendment might make this look less emblematic and lead more to actual outcomes. I reference input that I got was from Joyce Arthur, executive director of the Abortion Rights Coalition of Canada, ARCC.
She says that one possible suggestion to make it more effective and less symbolic is to change it to “action for gender equality week” or “gender equality action week”.
