Women, Income and Health in Manitoba: An Overview and Ideas for Action
|
|
This study looks at that disparity and how income inequality affects the health not only of women living in poverty but of everyone in our society. The link between income and health has a special importance for women. In Manitoba (as in the rest of Canada), poverty discriminates, striking women substantially more frequently and more severely than men.
