Funeral for a friend

Funeral for a friend: Winnipeg actvists say goodbye to Status of Women Canada as she was - "Status of Women Canada and her mandate for equality for women was born in 1971. She arose out of the hopes, dreams and hard work of grass roots women of Canada through the Royal Commission on the Status of Women ..."

The funeral eulogy drew attention to the fact that the losses of our friend the SWC is premature given that many inequities women faced in 1971, when SWC was established, are still the reality in Canada.
