4. Then and now
In the 1980s there was 65% of women in the labour market compared to now a days where its 82%
Women have different levels of power than men
Until women become the head of their job/cooperation they do not hold the levels of power
Women make 74.2 cents to every dollar a man makes where as in 1984 women made 65 cents compared to every dollar a man made

5. Then and now
Gender based violence affects approximately half of Canadian women
In 2015, 12% of board seats of TSX-listed companies were held by women
29% of the companies had one female director, while nearly half had no women on their boards at all 
Of the 710 companies, only 5 reported having a board comprised of 50% women.
Despite women preforming better in education, it still hasn’t resulted in women leading high end companies

7. Has gender inequality gotten better or worse over the years?
Women’s participation in the labor force has stagnated for two decades, and only 55% of women are part of the global labor force, compared with 82% of men
Women still earn 25% less as Canada slips down global rankings
When you compare a man and woman doing the same work in a 9-5 job — but divided by this pay gap — the woman essentially works for free after 3:55 in the afternoon.
Annually, they work for free from September 28 onwards
This became apparent recently, when Canada slipped 18 places in the World Economic Forum's Global Gender Gap rankings, from 19th to 35th, in just two years.

8. Benefits
Gender equality promotes agriculture and will reduce world hunger. Women receive average of 43% of the agricultural labor force in lower income nations, even though women farmers control less land and have restricted access to all the income needed to improve agricultural productivity.
Gender equality will reduce poverty.
Gender equality also expands labor markets and improves employment opportunities for all. With women now representing 40 percent of global labor force and more than half the world's university students, overall success will increase if their skills and talents are used more.
Gender equality in education contributes to higher economic growth. Over the past 50 years, education attainment has increased for women and girls accounts for about 50% of the economic growth.

9. Possible solution
We have to make sure that institutions become more capable of dealing with women who wish to have power so that they can also have children and be able to bring them up properly
We need more coverage on this topic and for people to realize this is unfair and that women and men do equal things, yet men get more recognition for it
We need videos, posters, news reports on this topic and it is something big that needs to be fixed and for women to have their voice and a say in society.
And to give women proper recognition and allow women into power and ignore the gender difference

10. Governments’ take on this
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, a self-proclaimed feminist, came together with the prioritization of gender equality on the national agenda.
On the eve of International Women's Day which happens in Canada on March 8th every year, it is important to acknowledge how far we have come in gender equality and what we are still trying to achieve.

11. conclusion
Gender equality in health contributes to economic development. A one-year increase in health expectancy for women could raise a nation's  product by up to 4%
In conclusion gender equality will help Canada become a more multicultural and diverse place where society can safer and more involved.
