Gélinas said despite winning legal appeals and a human rights tribunal, Ontario midwives are faced with a pay equity gap
Gélinas, who is also the NDP MPP for Nickel Belt, raised the issue in the Legislature Wednesday when she reminded the government that it was in 1994 that the New Democrats brought midwifery into the province as an official service of the Ministry of Health.
"After 16 years of Conservative and Liberal governments, midwives faced a $100,000 pay equity gap,” she added. "Yet we are now in 2023. It is International Women’s Day. Will this Conservative government do the right thing, respect the tribunal, respect midwives and give them pay equity?," Gélinas asked.
