Today is Equal Pay Day!
A few of our Advocacy Committee members stopped into MPP Randy Pettapiece’s office today to ask him, and the provincial government, to take action to close the gender pay gap.
We’re wearing red because women are in the red, on average earning almost 30% less than Ontario men, with greater inequities for Indigenous, racialized and immigrant women. Time to close the gap!
