Legacies Photo Exhibit at Queen's Park

In June, the Honourable Laurel Broten, Minister of Children and Youth Services and Minister Responsible for Women’s Issues, hosted a reception at the Ontario Legislative Assembly to welcome Federal-Provincial-Territorial Ministers Responsible for the Status of Women, prior to their annual meeting. A number of women leaders who have worked tirelessly on the advancement of women were also in attendance to share their knowledge and experiences with Ministers. The photo exhibit Legacies was on display and served as a backdrop for the eclectic exchange of ideas that evening.

Susan Seaby, Executive Director of the Ontario Women’s Directorate (http://www.citizenship.gov.on.ca/owd ) writes "I would like to convey our sincerest thanks to you Gina, for participating at the reception in June at the Legislative Assembly. The Legacies photo exhibit added a special feel to the evening, and was very much appreciated by all the guests. "
