We are adding our voice to this effort calling on Prime Minister Carney to appoint a Minister of Women, Gender Equality and 2SLGBTQIA+ People in his incoming cabinet.
The election might be over, but our advocacy isn't! Soon, Prime Minister Mark Carney will announce his cabinet. We need to make sure it includes a Minister of Women, Gender Equality and 2SLGBTQIA+ communities. Add your name: https://t.co/F7MtrdDkEw
