Gender-based analysis....

Here's an excerpt from Hansard yesterday, from Ms. Anita Neville (Winnipeg South Centre, Lib.) who presented the second report of the Standing Committee on the Status of Women.

The committee proposes that it is time to implement a new way of conducting the business of policy making in this House, a new way which gives increased attention to gender differences so that all Canadians benefit equally from legislation, policies and programs.

In its report, the committee outlines a comprehensive approach to ensure that gender based analysis is carried out throughout the federal government. It envisions a multi-partner effort whereby individual departments are involved. Status of Women Canada has a lead role, and the Privy Council Office, the Treasury Board Secretariat and Finance Canada coordinate and enforce accountability mechanisms.

Just what we need! Useless gender-based analysis with Status of Women taking a lead role.....
