Petition to the Government of Canada
- Recent media coverage has revealed that several hate groups and anti-LGBT groups and at least 45 anti-choice groups received CEWS funding (through the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy so companies can pay staff during the pandemic);
- The Canada Summer Jobs program has criteria that disqualify applicants whose activities “actively work to undermine or restrict a woman’s access to sexual and reproductive health services” and those who restrict access to programs, services, or employment via discrimination; and
- Public funds of the government should not be directed to organizations that support discrimination and are anti-choice.
