La députée du NPD, Peggy Nash, a récemment introduit le projet de loi C-375 à la Chambre des communes. Ce projet vise à rétablir un salaire minimum fédéral de 10 $ l’heure. Les organisations anti-pauvreté et le mouvement ouvrier appuient fermement ce projet de loi et un salaire minimum d’au moins 10 $ l’heure.

The 52nd session of the United Nations’ Commission on the Status of Women took place in March 2008. The theme for these sessions was “Financing for Women’s Equality”.

FAFIA led a delegation of eight women to attend these sessions. The delegation took part in a training session on women’s economic security in Canada to lend domestic context to these international meetings.
