Saturday January: Women and March

saturday january: On Saturday January 20 from noon to 2 pm, protestors will take over downtown again, according to NOW Magazine. But this year's event, Women March On Toronto Defining Our Future, takes the focus off Trump. Over 60,000 people rallied at Toronto's Women's March, one of 200 satellite demonstrations in solidarity with the Women's March on Washington, which was organized in reaction to Trump's presidential inauguration. Instead, organizers are dedicated to providing a platform for local issues. Because the fight for gender equality is far from over Women continue to be underrepresented in political and leadership roles, and still earn less than men for the same work done. We spoke to co-organizer Kavita Dogra on why it's more important than ever to attend. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
