Statement on #WomensMarch2018

“It’s been one year since a million people marched in the streets of North America and around the world. They marched for women’s rights. For the right to choose, for equal pay, for LGBTQ rights.

Unfortunately the list is still too long. This year we must redouble our efforts.

With the birth of the #metoo movement and the awakening of millions to the injustice suffered by so many women in the workplace it is clear so much is still left to do.The Green Party of Ontario is committed to this struggle: the rights of women to fair and equal treatment, pay and reproductive rights are core beliefs of Ontario Greens.

We thank all the marchers today of all political stripes working to further women’s rights here in Ontario and around the world.”
