贾斯廷·特鲁多总理 9 月 18 日就性别平等周发布如下声明：

“今天是加拿大性别平等周（Gender Equality Week）的首日，这一周将持续到 9 月 24 日。本周是彰显女性以及性别多样化人士已经做出并在继续做出之贡献的一个机会，并庆 祝我们在国内和世界各地所取得的进步。 “目前仍有很多工作要做。我们知道，性别平等将为所有人带来益处：它有助于经济增 长，带来更大的健康和幸福，促进和平与安全。今年的主题是‘平等权利、平等机会’， 这激励我们继续共同努力，打破女性和性别多样化人群在争取成功方面所面临的系统性障 碍。这就是为什么加拿大联邦政府要兑现落实我们的承诺，营造一个全加拿大范围内的儿 童早期教育和托儿服务体系，此举将有助于在今年降低托儿服务成本。我们知道，当我们 投资幼教和托儿服务之时，我们就是在支持女性参与职业劳动力市场，促进经济增长。

“无论在国内还是在国外，加拿大都是性别平等的领导者和捍卫者。近年来，我们在全 国各地支持了数百个项目和倡议，以确保每个人，无论性别，都能感到安全。在世界舞台 上，加拿大正在支持性健康和生殖健康及权利，以帮助确保世界各地的女性和女童能够获 得她们最需要的有质量保障的保健服务。作为‘联合国秘书长可持续发展目标倡导小组’ 的共同主席（Co-Chair of the United Nations Secretary-General’s Sustainable Development Goals Advocates group），我将继续帮助改善民众的生活，包括让人们关 注并推进性别平等以及为女性女孩赋予权能。

“值此性别平等周，我鼓励大家使用#GenderEqualityWeek （性别平等周） 标签参与对话。 携手共进，我们可以实现一个让每个人都有公平机会争取成功的平等加拿大。”

Statement by the Prime Minister on Gender Equality Week

September 18, 2022 Ottawa, Ontario Prime Minister’s Office

The Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, today issued the following statement on Gender Equality Week:

“Today marks the beginning of Gender Equality Week in Canada, which runs until September 24. This week is an opportunity to highlight contributions women and gender-diverse people have made – and continue to make – in shaping our country, and to celebrate how far we have come, here at home and around the world.

“There is still much work to do. We know that gender equality benefits everyone: it helps grow the economy, leads to greater health and happiness, and promotes peace and security. This year’s theme – Equal Rights, Equal Opportunities – inspires us to continue working together to break down the systemic barriers women and genderdiverse people face to success. That’s why the Government of Canada is delivering on our promise to build a Canada-wide Early Learning and Child Care system, which is helping reduce child care costs this year. We know that when we invest in child care, we support women’s participation in the workforce and grow the economy.

“Canada is a leader and a champion for gender equality, both domestically and abroad. In recent years, we have supported hundreds of projects and initiatives across the country to make sure everyone can feel safe, regardless of their gender. On the world stage, Canada is supporting sexual and reproductive health and rights to help ensure that women and girls around the world have access to the quality health services they need the most. As Co-Chair of the United Nations Secretary-General’s Sustainable Development Goals Advocates group, I will continue to help make life better for people, including by bringing attention to and advancing gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls.

“This Gender Equality Week, I encourage everyone to join the conversation by using the hashtag #GenderEqualityWeek. Together, we can achieve an equal Canada where everyone can have a fair chance at success.”
