Dear YWCA Toronto Supporter,

30 years. That's how long it's been since our federal party leaders have publicly debated about the issues that matter to women and girls.

Join YWCA Toronto in supporting Up for Debate, a call to all political parties, leading up to the 2015 federal election, to commit to a nationally broadcast debate on women's issues. Issues such as a national childcare strategy, an end to violence against women, greater economic equality and supporting women's leadership.

The New Democratic Party and the Green Party have agreed to the debate- we need your support to convince the Liberal Party and the Conservative Party that they should also participate.  

Join the Up for Debate campaign!

Stand alongside over 100 women's organizations and their allies and demand
that the issues that matter to women and girls are #UpForDebate in the 2015 federal election!

COLLECT SIGNATURES on the print version of this petition.

But don't let the conversation end with you. Send this email to 10+ of your family members, friends, networks and organizations across Canada, and ask them to join the movement.

Use your Facebook or Twitter to boost the signal. It's time to talk.
