Thank you to everyone who has spoken up with us, especially to ensure this government maintains funding for 2SLGBTQIA+ and women-serving organizations. Our win on that issue was made possibly by your advocacy.
White text on a blue background reads: "What we're happy about: Women and Gender Equality Canada was facing an 81% cut over the next 3 years. Our collective advocacy delayed that crisis. Budget 2025 included new funds that will be a lifeline for local women-serving and 2SLGBTQIA+ organizations, including ongoing funding (a huge, long-term, win). Now, we have an opportunity to work with government to put these funds to good use supporting women, girls and 2SLGBTQIA+ people - and in doing so, build a more free, equal and prosperous Canada." White text on blue background reads: "What we're less happy about: The future of universal pharmacare and affordable childcare is in doubt. Prime Minister Carney’s housing plan is underwhelming, and has little detail on how it’ll tackle the gendered nature of the housing crisis. The cuts to the public service workforce will come at a cost to the services Canadians - especially vulnerable Canadians - rely on, and the cuts to international aid at a time of global crises are deeply concerning. And - WAGE’s budget will still decrease overall, to pre-COVID levels, despite rising hate and a gender-based violence crisis." White text on blue background reads: "What we're less happy about - continued: This budget was billed as a “generational” budget. But generational for whom? Not for the families still on affordable childcare wait lists. Not for working class people who can barely make ends meet. Not for those who wanted to see Canada do more to tackle hate and extremism. A truly generational budget would recognize that building a stronger economy requires building an economy that works for everyone, as part of building a Canada where freedom, equality and prosperity are shared by all."
