The Legislative Assembly of British Columbia
1st Session
42nd Parliament

A
Women
are
still
paid
less
than
their
male
counterparts.
It
goes
without
saying
that
women
and
girls
make
extraordinary
contributions
each
and
every
day
in
business,
education,
sports
arts,
science,
agriculture,
parenting
and,
of
course,
in
government.
Yet
throughout
the
world,
women
still
struggle
to
rise
to
their
full
potential.
A
At
this
point,
we
can
only
imagine
a
time
when
international
women's
day
isn't
necessary
to
shine
a
spotlight
on
the
many
challenges
faced
by
women
and
girls
to
achieve
real
gender
equity.
The
harsh
reality
is:
we
aren't
there
yet
not
even
close
as
a
father
of
three
smart
and
determined
daughters,
the
challenge
that
lights
a
fire
within
me,
as
I'm
sure
it
does,
for
all
parents
as
a
father.
My
greatest
accomplishment
in
life
will
be
to
have
done
my
part
to
ensure
that
the
only
obstacle
my
daughters
ever
faced
is
the
limits
of
their
imagination.
