Mr. Speaker, this week is a time to reflect on our accomplishments, and also the progress we have yet to make. Our government has implemented initiatives to help support women entrepreneurs, we implemented the national action plan to end gender-based violence, and we implemented pay equity legislation to level the playing field for women.
We recognize there is more work to do, and that is why our government will introduce, this fall, legislation that would ensure the safety of women so they participate equally in society.
We understand, on this side of the House, that we cannot build the strongest economy in the G7 without the full and equal participation of women.
