International Women's Day

3/8/2016

Because it's 2015. We heard that from the PM himself justifying why an equal amount of women should be in Ottawa. 

Because it's 2016 is the answer we should be giving as we work collectively to encourage more women to sit on boards, to consider employment in non-traditional industries, to regain their careers after the child-rearing years, and ultimately to live their dreams, big and small.

We have one day, today, International Women's Day, to run this message down, to yelp it from a mountain-top, to share it with others. We have one day, and we'll take the one, although we should  be talking about it everyday, and acting on it every day, even with small gestures.

It's about time that more women in Canada are in leadership roles. We live in the most multicultural country in the world, but goodness, we could be doing a better job in ensuring that Canadian women are taken more seriously in a sleuth of professions. 

It's about time. 

It's 2016.
