Below is a 2010 list of Women's groups across Canada funded by a very sexist government. (They are all the same across Canada, however). Although I find the Tories the lesser of the panderers in federal politics they clearly indulge, as did the Liberals, the female vote with questionable handouts. Note the YWCA gets funding despite their political campaigns against the gun registry. Note the number of female only ethnic groups being funded. One would think we would only allow into the country those who are going to be self sufficient and bring skill sets that will be productive, or we would expect their direct and extended family to undertake this charitable work.
I note the Alberta Council of Women's Shelters (ACWS), gets money. Is this where their Chief Propagandist, Jan Reimer gets her pay cheque?
The government list: Women's groups that ARE funded

Today Chris Hilton, the minister's director of communications, sent us the list of those 78 projects/groups (which were chosen from a record 486 proposals, according to the government.) This list is by province and territory and there is no indication of how much money is attached to each project (although we will attempt to find that out). There is also no information on what the projects are specifically about (although some seem obvious), but I'm sure a little digging will bring us those nuggets as well.
This list comes after the opposition accused the government of cutting funding to groups that do not share the Conservative's ideology. The Liberals, for example, issued their own selective list yesterday.
Here is the government's list for readers to peruse:
