Public Perspectives: Canadian Views on Equality for Women
Canadians among highest worldwide to believe that women have equal opportunities to men in the country
Public opinion on women’s equality still depends on which gender you ask — while 57% of women in Canada believe that they have opportunities equal to men, men are more far more likely to believe that this is the case (76%). Further, a minority of women (42%) believe that the government is doing enough to promote equal opportunities for women — a view held by a majority of Canadian men (60%).
