Canadian Women's Chamber of Commerce (CanWCC)

Of course we all want to feel empowered, but empowerment alone is not going to close the gender pay gap, make the funding landscape more fair or remove systemic barriers for women and non-binary business owners. You deserve respect. You deserve fair access to opportunities. Forget Empowerment. You deserve #EconomicEquity. We advocate for and represent the diverse voices of more than 1.2 million self-identified women and gender-diverse self-employed and small business owners across Canada.  We offer our community of entrepreneurs networking, monthly events, partner discounts and connection, while also advocating for your rights as a business owner. Want to be a part of advancing Economic Equity? Join us! https://canwcc.ca/join/
