The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted Canadians across the country, and women in franchising are no exception. In this moderated Q & A session with Hon. Jill Dunlop, Associate Minister of Children and Women's Issues, attendees will have the opportunity to learn about how the Government of Ontario is helping women in the workforce. We’ll examine the barriers presented to women by COVID-19, such as child care, and how government programs can help overcome them. We’ll also provide the Minster’s insight into an Ontario task force that will examine the barriers women face in the workforce.
