Why women should vote yes by Lynn McDonald
Canadian voters face a critical choice ahead of the October 26 referendum. Lynn McDonald argues that while the Aug 28 accord is imperfect it is serviceable and necessary, urging women and men to back the accord and push for gender equality in the Senate, with BC leading the push for a yes vote. The piece criticizes NAC for opposing the accord without specifics and calls for constructive involvement from Aboriginal groups and equal protection under law. McDonald, former NAC president and University of Guelph sociology professor, underscores the political nature of national child care and social programs and the need for broad support to advance women’s equality.
