Women and the Equality Deficit: The Impact of Restructuring Canada's Social Programs
Shelagh Day and Gwen Brodsky
(March 1998) This study examines whether Bill C-76, which creates the Canada Health and Social Transfer and repeals the Canada Assistance Plan Act, complies with Canada's commitments to women's equality as expressed in domestic and international human rights instruments. The study considers whether current interpretations of the right to equality can address the economic dimensions of women's inequality. It also identifies strategies for enhancing the accountability of economic and social policy decision-makers to commitments to women's equality.
