Attorney General Roland Penner presented the Equal Rights Statute Amendment Bill in the Manitoba Legislature. The omnibus measure amends 131 provisions to curb gender bias, extend paternity and adoption leave, regulate common law spouses, and end various discriminatory laws including liquor restrictions on election days.
