Canada's Leaders Sound the Alarm on the Childcare Crisis Crisis threatens the future of the economy and the women who work in it, says The Prosperity Project

Article content
TORONTO, April 12, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — A diverse group of Canada’s leaders are saying the time has come to view the absence of early childhood education and care as a Canada-wide emergency and are asking the federal government to get on with the business of fixing it.
In an open letter to Minister Freeland, six other federal ministers and Opposition Leaders, signed by public policy and business leaders from across the country, The Prosperity Project is calling for the introduction of a Canada-wide early learning and childcare (ELCC) system to address the needs of working families, citing multiple research studies that show women are exiting the workforce due to the pressures of the pandemic. Joining the Prosperity Project to support this call are Business Council of Canada CEO Goldy Hyder, the Hon. Margaret McCain and Children First Canada Founder Sara Austin.

TORONTO, Feb. 23, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A ground-breaking national study finds there is a glacial pace of progress towards gender and racial equity at the leadership level of Canadian organizations because there are few racialized and Indigenous women in the pipeline to C-suite jobs.
The 2021 Annual Report Card on Gender Diversity and Leadership: The Zero Report, co-presented by KPMG in Canada, surveyed 48 of Canada’s largest organizations in late 2020. Each organization collected and shared race-based data with The Prosperity Project. The results show 89 per cent of surveyed organizations have zero black women in the pipeline to the leadership level and 91 per cent have zero Indigenous (First Nations, Inuit and Métis) women.
