In 2015, the then-newly elected federal government boldly declared itself a “feminist” one. Leaders of many gender equity organizations across the country — including ours — felt a sense of optimism we hadn’t felt in decades.
Over 250 organizations — including the ones we lead — received capacity-building funding. We invested in long-term sustainability, including strategic, fundraising, and operational planning.
At the same time, we face a looming recession, a growing global backlash against the rights of women, trans, and non-binary people, and an inflationary environment with more people relying on our services and fewer people able to donate or volunteer. The result? A sector that is facing the prospect of devastating cuts to programming and staff at the exact moment when we are needed the most.
Investment in Canada’s feminist sector is a preventative measure that ensures we are building the strong and well-resourced communities we all need. Investment in the feminist sector not only ensures crucial direct services are available for women and gender-diverse people who need them.
Woman don’t invest in woman. It’s a shame.
Women need constant rescuing.
It also insures money will be lost
Women's day is an insult to females. It's a tiresome rant. Stop it.
