Femmes, L'impôt Et Les Programmes Sociaux
Author: Claire Francesca Louise Young
Publisher: Condition féminine Canada
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : fr
Pages : 200
Book Description
This study examines the impact on women of funding social programs through the tax system using the framework of tax expenditure analysis, which allows viewing of any departure from the normative tax system as a spending measure. The analysis takes in to account the socio-economic realities of women's lives and compares the benefits to women with benefits to men of many tax measures that are subsidies in respect of social programs. Tax measures explored include the child care expense deduction, the Canada Child Tax Benefit, tax subsidies for retirement saving, the disability tax credit, and tax relief for caregivers. The study concludes with a list of issues that should be considered by those involved in the tax policy process in order to ensure that women are not disadvantaged in comparison to men when tax subsidies are used to fund social programs.

Women and the Equality Deficit
Author: Shelagh Day
Publisher: Status of Women Canada
ISBN:
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
February 1995 legislation entitled the Budget Implementation Act repealed the Canada Assistance Plan and introduced the Canada Health & Social Transfer. This publication begins with a review of the Plan, what the new Act has taken away from national social programs, the history of national standards for social programs, the federal role in setting such standards, and implications for women and the poor. Chapter 2 describes the equality commitments made by Canada both internationally and domestically. Chapter 3 examines the application of equality rights when economic policies are challenged in the courts. Chapter 4 explores more closely the content of the rights instruments available to women and sets out interpretations of equality guarantees that can be responsive to women's material inequality and that draw on the richness and complexity of Canada's equality commitments. The final chapter considers the work that women must do to ensure that both social programs and equality guarantees can be responsive to women's needs and aspirations. Future directions are suggested for women's activism, institutional reform, and government policy.
