Mr. Speaker, my colleague highlighted that economic downturns can have effects that last for generations. COVID-19 has seen the greatest exit of women from the workforce in 30 years. All of the progress the Prime Minister just mentioned was wiped out a year ago. He has talked about the “she-cession” many times over this last year, but all the Liberals have done is announced a task force for the future.
Why does the government still not have a plan to get women back into the workforce in all sectors and in all regions of the country?
