Description
Cites the impact of Harper Government decisions to not proceed on pay equity, not improve EI provisions and the possible ramifications of the "three strikes and you're out" law that could jail certain offenders indefinitely. The article argues that those particularly affected would include Aboriginal women with addictions or histories of abuse who have acted out in violence and have inadequate access to healing.
