@anabailaoTO @TaushaMichaud @Beatrice_Politi @QadiraJackson “Nobody’s going to decide someday we’ll have fifty per cent women in any given campaign. We need to demystify things surrounding getting involved. You don’t have to just door knock, there are so many other ways to get involved.” - @TaushaMichaud

The panel is kicking off with opening remarks from chapter member @NilooB

@anabailaoTO @TaushaMichaud @Beatrice_Politi @QadiraJackson “We need to create the space. It’s not an easy life, and it’s a life that never took women into consideration. Everyone that’s been elected needs to change that and leave things better than how they found it.” - @anabailaoTO

@anabailaoTO @TaushaMichaud @Beatrice_Politi @QadiraJackson @Beatrice_Politi asks: what barriers can be removed to make it equitable for women?

@TaushaMichaud: we should drop the Friday sitting federally. It’s absolute hell for women who don’t live in Ottawa or nearby. For people with families, it’s not a desirable lifestyle.

@anabailaoTO @TaushaMichaud @Beatrice_Politi @QadiraJackson “If I hadn’t lost a campaign in 2017, I wouldn’t have won in 2020. I didn’t dwell on the 2017 loss.” - @TaushaMichaud
