Executive Director: Chow and Nancy Peckford

executive director: People that are not doing well are looking for someone to blame and it must be the migrants, it must be the refugees, it must be the latte-drinking city worker, said Chow, who was defeated in the 2015 election after trying to regain the seat she had given up to run unsuccessfully for mayor of Toronto, according to National Observer. It both sexist and racist elements being combined the fear of it all, said Chow, who said she was remaining hopeful, even as the results coming through on TV spun an increasingly disappointing story. People are not ready for female leaders, Chow said as she thought about why this was happening. Nancy Peckford, executive director of Equal Voice, agreed that sexism likely played a role in the result. We always thought it would be close. If she doesnt win tonight, clearly a formidable and talented woman with a tremendous campaign team it makes us wonder if the U.S. electorate was ready for a female president, Peckford said.
