Women are being undervalued and underpaid! Women must work beyond the 12 months to make what men made in just 1 year. If you are an Indigenous, Black, disabled or other equity-deserving woman, it takes even longer. Close the gender pay gap now! #EqualPayDay #EnoughIsEnough

Tomorrow, April 4, is Equal Pay Day.

This means it takes a woman about 15 months to earn what the avg man earns in a year.

The gender pay gap costs the Cdn economy billions. It costs women a path to full equality.

Yes sisters, we are still counting. #canfem #canlab

The commitment @globeandmail is putting into climate change coverage is a shining example of why we need professional journalism today more than ever. But the Globe, like all media, is threatened by the loss of ad revenue to Goog/FB. https://t.co/V0syVMSOxi
