Submission to the Standing Committee on the Status of Women Submission to the Standing Committee on the Status of Women March 13, 2008 Armine Yalnizyan Senior Economist, Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives This Committee has an opportunity to engage and lead Canadians in focusing on what matters - quality of life. [...] I have written a full report on this topic which I have submitted to the clerk of the committee, but let me cut to the chase. [...] Cities that offer everyone the chance of getting ahead, of getting an education, of managing the twin demands of work and family life. [...] These are the concerns of the women of Canada. [...] I thank you for the opportunity to present to this committee, and look forward to your recommendations as to what should be in the action plan and how the government should approach its next budget.
