Lynn Stephens, BC’s Minister of State for Women’s Equality (formerly it’s own ministry, now part of the Ministry of Community, Aboriginal, and Women’s Services), has this to say about equality for women:
She continues on to claim that disparity exists between men’s and women’s average pay because women want to work part time.
She is also careful to stress that “More women are abused, not oppressed”, defending cuts to the ministry while promising to maintain funding for transition houses, etc.
When asked about the tax cuts, Stephens did seem to show some sense of reason, agreeing that rich get richer and the poor get poorer,” only to note, “That’s the world we live in, the world we’ve always lived in.” Her suggested solution: “Well, then, make more money”
She continues on in this insiteful vein on numerous other subject in an interview with the Langley Advance News (Langley is her constituency), from which most of this post was plagiariazed
I work in the childcare field. In March we will lose a contract which will result in a paycut. Working with children can be a lot of fun but can also be a lot of work. Lynn Stephens said that paying childcare workers 16 dollars an hour is to rich. My question is if she is not going to look after the rights of women and women dominated jobs , why should she be there? Who is Paying for her salary? We are tax payers. She should be removed as she is useless..
