Setting the Stage for the Next Century: The Federal Plan for Gender Equality

The 1995 Federal Plan for Gender Equality recognizes the many different realities for women in Canada. These realities are the outcome not only of gender, but also of age, race, class, national and ethnic origin, sexual orientation, mental and physical disability, region, language and religion. Equality, the document states, can be achieved only by valuing this diversity.
