         <description><![CDATA[<div>In World War 1, while men were at war fighting, women started working on farms and in factories. This helped win the war and women earned new respects. At the end of the war most women won the right to vote, except for Native women. After the war most women returned to their traditional jobs because the men came home and reclaimed their jobs, women were only aloud to work for the government if they were single and had no income or if no man could take the job. The same year a women, Agnes Macphail, was elected into the house of commons. She believed and fought to improve women rights. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The Persons Case was a case that fought for women to be recognized as "people" , as well as women's rights. In 1929, women were deemed to be "persons" in a legal sense, the result of a huge effort made by five Canadian women now collectively known as the Famous Five.  ( Emily Murphy, Irene Parlby, Nellie McClung, Louise McKinney, and Henrietta Muir Edwards ) </div>]]></description>

         <title>5) What was the effect of World War 2 and the Canadian Bill of Rights?</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>As the men of the country went away to fight in World War 2, the number of people available to work in factories and other places diminished. Due to the increased demand for industrial products, companies were forced to hire women in their factories and workplaces which were previously considered to be a man's job. Women had a taste of equality when they were finally given the same opportunities as men, and this caused them to fight for their rights harder than ever before after the war. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Employment Equity is the principle of equal treatment of all employees based on their abilities. The Act was formed and aimed for the reason of protecting women, Native people, people with disabilities, and members of visible minorities.&nbsp;<br><br>On its status today, in the year 2001 a Ministry of Defense report found that the military had failed on being able to hire women, and integrate them into the armed forces due to the insensitivity, ignorance, and biases of men. That following year, the ban was lifted and was announced that all females would be applicable to serving in submarines.<br><br>More women are being integrated into the armed forces, albeit being very slow. More women seem to be leaving the forces rather than joining. And only 2% of the forces are visible minorities whilst 1.5% are Natives.  </div>]]></description>
