==== '''Women in Ministerial Roles''' ====
With this new increased representation of women in Ministerial roles some news outlets have alternate takes on the women in these roles.

===== ''' 2015 Trudeau Cabinet''' =====
Two high profile roles in the current government, Minister of Environment, and Minister of Trade are held by women. This has led to some in the media making less than acceptable remarks about those in the positions of power.

===== '''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catherine_McKenna Catherine McKenna]''' =====
Arguably some of the worst media representations have been surrounding Catherine McKenna, Minister of the Environment. In 2017, conservative online media outlet The Rebel took to calling McKenna ‘Climate Barbie” in news content on their site. After receiving a question from a reporter from the Rebel at a press conference Mckenna called out the outlet and asked that they stop calling her ‘Climate Barbie” in their content. In response to this altercation Ezra Levant founder of the news outlet took to twitter saying: “Appointed to fill a gender quota; unable to control her emotions when criticized; spends taxes on vanity photo shoots. #ClimateBarbie fits,”. <ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.thestar.com/news/canada/2017/11/05/environment-minister-catherine-mckennas-climate-barbie-exchange-with-rebel-reporter-draws-strong-reactions.html|title=Environment Minister Catherine McKenna’s ‘climate Barbie’ exchange with Rebel reporter draws strong reactions|last=The Canadian Press|first=|date=November 4, 2015|work=CBC News|access-date=}}</ref> This altercation displays the difficulty of women in politics having their work come first.

hi I noticed your linking topic on the grsj board doesn't quite relate to the topic at large. You might want to change that to reflect the topic. Otherwise I like that you included the #thisisnotconsent campaign. I know that there have been some recent advancements in the campaign and it could be really helpful if you included some of those!

Your page looks great I really like the addition of linking out to the full wiki's of some of the defining words. There are so many different factors at play in the DTES it can often be hard to contextualize all of the aspects at play that have culminated in the DTES being what it is now. Amazing work definitely one of the most well rounded ones I have looked at. If you wanted to add more you could add a case study on one of the buildings, and the ongoing discussions between the levels of government.

Hi,
I'm really glad you chose this topic as it is an important part of our political dynamics in Canada but many do not talk about it. I think that you could definelty improve upon the piece by looking at flow of the paragraphs. Many of the sentences could be combined to improve the way the paragraphs flow. Overall its good but could definelty use some polishing.

Hi agree with you there I think to add to the topic overall there needs to be a greater sense of credibility which could be added through the addition of academic sources. Additionally I think that you need to watch the tone and direction of your points it is important to try and create a neutral stance when explaining the facets of a system you can talk about benefit but by making forward statements your credibility on the topic can be lost.

===== '''The 2015 Election''' =====
The 2015 election brought change to the House of Commons including the highest number of women ever to be elected. Out of the 338 members of Parliament 88 women were elected leaving just 26 percent of seats held by women. <ref name=":3">{{Cite news|url=https://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/politics/politics-briefing-across-canada-women-are-still-underrepresented/article38247083/|title=Politics Briefing: Across Canada, women are still underrepresented|last=Hannay|first=Chris|date=March 9, 2018|work=The Globe and Mail|access-date=}}</ref> This has put Canada in 24<sup>th</sup> place, in a ranking of OECD countries. <ref name=":3" /> Although Canada ranks poorly overall internationally Trudeau’s selection of cabinet, with gender parity in mind, has placed Canada third overall among OECD countries. <ref name=":3" />When asked about why he had brought gender parity to cabinet Trudeau replied with the now famous quote “Because it’s 2015”, stating that politics should better represent the country as a whole. <ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/canada-trudeau-liberal-government-cabinet-1.3304590|title=Because it's 2015': Trudeau forms Canada's 1st gender-balanced cabinet|last=The Canadian Press|first=|date=November 6, 2015|work=|access-date=}}</ref>

==== '''Women in Ministerial Roles''' ====
With this new increased representation of women in Ministerial roles some news outlets have alternate takes on the women in these roles.

===== ''' 2015 Trudeau Cabinet''' =====
Two high profile roles in the current government, Minister of Environment, and Minister of Trade are held by women. This has led to some in the media making less than acceptable remarks about those in the positions of power.

===== '''Catherine McKenna''' =====
Arguably some of the worst media representations have been surrounding Catherine McKenna, Minister of the Environment. In 2017, conservative online media outlet The Rebel took to calling McKenna ‘Climate Barbie” in news content on their site. After receiving a question from a reporter from the Rebel at a press conference Mckenna called out the outlet and asked that they stop calling her ‘Climate Barbie” in their content. In response to this altercation Ezra Levant founder of the news outlet took to twitter saying: “Appointed to fill a gender quota; unable to control her emotions when criticized; spends taxes on vanity photo shoots. #ClimateBarbie fits,”. <ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.thestar.com/news/canada/2017/11/05/environment-minister-catherine-mckennas-climate-barbie-exchange-with-rebel-reporter-draws-strong-reactions.html|title=Environment Minister Catherine McKenna’s ‘climate Barbie’ exchange with Rebel reporter draws strong reactions|last=The Canadian Press|first=|date=November 4, 2015|work=CBC News|access-date=}}</ref> This altercation displays the difficulty of women in politics having their work come first.

===== '''Chrystia Freeland''' =====
Similar to Catherine McKenna, Chrystia Freeland has had similar takes in the media surrounding her leadership. An article by the Globe and Mail chose to title an article that illustrates her strong negotiation skills “Chrystia Freeland Warrior princess”.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/article-chrystia-freeland-warrior-princess/|title=Chrystia Freeland, warrior princess|last=Wente|first=Margaret|date=October 1, 2018|work=The Globe and Mail|access-date=}}</ref> This choice of words no matter how good the article illustrates her work sets a gendered tone to the article as a whole.

=== Historical Background ===
In the fall of 1917 in efforts to maintain control, the Government of Robert Borden extended partial suffrage. This was followed by a motion on 24 May 1918 that allowed female citizens aged 21 and over, that were not a part of a racial or indigenous exclusion to vote in federal elections. (1) In July 1919 enfranchised women gained the right to stand in the House of Common but did not gain the right to be appointed to the Senate until 1929 following the Persons Case.(1) The first women elected to the House of Commons was Agnes Macphail in 1921, sitting as a representative of the United Farmers of Ontario.(1) Women elected to office in Canada faced immense obstacles and resistance to winning a seat.

Although women won the right to take office in the House of Commons they did not gain the right to hold a position in the until following the Persons Case. The Persons Case of 1929, or Edwards v. A.G. of Canada, was a founding moment for women in Canadian politics as women fought for the recognition of women as persons under the law.(2) The case was initiated by a group of Prominent Female activists known as the Famous Five. (2) Following a ruling by the Supreme Court of Canada in 1928 that ruled women were not “persons” according to the British North America Act, so the women took the case to the Privy Council of England, who reversed the decision in 1929.(2) This recognition of women as persons allowed them to work in both the Upper and Lower house of government as well as no longer be denied rights based on the previous interpretation of the law.
