VANCOUVER - A study released today by the BC Federation of Labour shows provincial policies have unfairly impacted women.

The report: 'Still Waiting for Justice' has been released … It shows women are still paid less than men doing the same jobs, they have limited access to affordable childcare and even in retirement women are likely to have smaller pensions and fewer RRSPs.

The BC Fed is calling for the increase of minimum wage to $10 an hour and the re-establishment of the Ministry for Women's Equality.
