Download or read book Women s Legal Strategies in Canada written by Radha Jhappan and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have Canadian women gained from their pursuit of legal remedies to social, political, economic, and cultural inequalities? Is law a fruitful avenue for such struggles? Using liberal feminist, postmodern, critical, race, and queer theory, these essays confront the anti-rights critiques of the legal Left regarding the use of law in general and the Charter in particular. Several chapters explicitly examine the strategic limits and possibilities of the substantive equality rights approaches pursued by LEAF (The Women's Legal Education and Action Fund). Others focus on legal strategies mobilized in discreet areas of law and public policy by foreign domestic workers and racialized women, lesbians, women seeking reproductive freedom, women in the childcare movement, and anti-violence advocates. Recognizing the diversity of women across class, citizenship, race and ethnicity, sexual identity, culture, and (dis)ability, this collection evaluates the efficacy of the wide range of legal and political strategies women have employed, particularly in this post-Charter era. Women's Legal Strategies in Canada is the most comprehensive account of these important issues and will surely become the standard work in the field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first report in this compilation examines whether the Canadian Human Rights Act (CHRA) should contain an open-ended clause that would prohibit discrimination on grounds other than those specifically listed in the Act. The second report examines whether, and how, social & economic rights can be effectively protected under the CHRA. It reviews findings & recommendations of United Nations treaty monitoring bodies, studies the issue from a domestic perspective, and considers how new social & economic rights guarantees under the CHRA should be formulated. The third report discusses whether adding "social condition" to the CHRA's grounds of discrimination would provide protection from discrimination occurring because of the negative stereotyping of people with low incomes. The final report analyzes 453 sexual harassment complaints filed by women against both corporate & individual respondents between 1978 and 1993. It examines dispositions, remedies, length of time to case resolution, and the monetary compensation awarded.
Download or read book Obligations and Omissions written by Rebecca Tiessen and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2017-06-12 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On issues pertaining to women and girls, Stephen Harper’s federal government positioned Canada as a “beacon of light” in the world. Programs were developed in relation to women’s maternal health and the protection of the girl child, but other actions point to an ambiguous and even contradictory approach that failed to address gender inequality. In Obligations and Omissions, contributors examine Canada’s equivocal – and diminished – role in working toward gender equality in the period between 2006 and 2015. Using a critical feminist lens to document, analyze, and challenge Canada’s relations with the Global South, chapters explore the extent to which matters of gender equality have been erased or exploited under the Harper government and the factors that explain these policy shifts. While the contributors document successes in Canada’s approach to some issues facing women and girls around the world, they also show many problems with the ways that agenda was framed and implemented under the Conservative government.. Drawing on rich theoretical investigation, empirical research, and discourse analysis, Obligations and Omissions reveals a complex picture of diverse practices, underscoring the implications of these actions for communities in the Global South, for Canada’s image in the international community, and for future governments in the pursuit of a renewed gender equality strategy.
