Algoma-Manitoulin-Kapuskasing, MP Carol Hughes joined the women’s march in Sudbury on Saturday to add her voice to those calling for a world where women are equal in every way.
Hughes says events like the march show people believe society still has a long way to go until women are not just considered equal, but also treated equally.
She added she sees the MeToo movement as something of a watershed moment because it is allowing a challenge of people who hold a lot of power in society and holds them accountable.
Hughes believes women’s issues cover a lot of ground and notes people march for diverse reasons in search of a common reason, such as immigration, healthcare, reproductive and workers’ rights and more.
