Gender Unfairness in Courts

92.7 Gender Unfairness

Whereas, Gender inequality presently exists in the courts and in the treatment of women as professionals, as witnesses,

as accused persons, and as victims; therefore, be it,

RESOLVED, That The National Council of Women of Canada urge the Government of Canada in cooperation with the Canadian

Bar Association to establish a national task force on gender equality in the courts; and be it further,

RESOLVED, That The National Council of Women of Canada urge its provincial and local Councils of Women to request their

respective provincial governments to take similar action.
