Together we’re building a more inclusive future for women and girls!

International Women's Day

It's International Women's Day! And we’re reflecting on women’s participation in our economy, our democracy, and all aspects of Canadian life.

To support women in our economy, our Liberal team

Is making $10-a-day child care a reality to help get more women back in the workforce. Established the first-ever Task Force on Women in the Economy.

Cut taxes on small businesses, and helped provide more support for women, Black, and Indigenous entrepreneurs. Is advancing reconciliation with Indigenous peoples and allocating funding towards projects for First Nations, Inuit, and Métis women, girls, and LGBTQ2+ people.

And – labour force participation rate for Canadian women in Canada is at an all-time high at 85.6%.

Together we're building a more inclusive future for women and girls!

In our democracy:

The House of Commons now has 103 women MPs – the highest ever! More women & gender-diverse candidates ran in the 2021 federal election than ever before.

But, women are 50% less likely to consider being potential candidates for office compared to men.

International Women's Day

There is still more work ahead of us in achieving gender equality.

Advancing gender equality leads to

Increased economic prosperity, greater health and happiness, greater peace and security, fairness and justice in our society, a better future for everyone.

Our Liberal government is committed to creating space where women feel safe, empowered, and encouraged to run for office. Learn more about our Liberal team’s #InviteHertoRun initiative and our work to support more women’s involvement in politics and across our movement.

Together let's keep building a better future for all Canadians. Thank you, Liberal Party of Canada.
