I post this with permission of the author, a
Globe and Mail
columnist. It will be a little awkward to read online,
and it won't print out, but it is worth the effort. Ms McLaren
is one of my favourite columnists and this article
from Saturday October 31, 2009 on women's lack of pay equal to
that of men says it all. We cannot ordinarily
post entire articles; I wrote Ms McLaren for special permission.
She also has written a novel, The Continuity Girl, which
is well worth reading.
