Women and Work in Canada

Paper Summary:

This paper is a study of working conditions for women in Canadian factories, an important undertaking as it helps to identify the origins of economic freedom for women and to a lesser extent other minority groups such as the native Indian populations. This paper explores the rise of the industrialized factory setting and in doing so shall demonstrate that the increased need for unskilled labor created a demand for workers which in turn changed the perception of persons who were previously undesirable labor candidates into persons who were seen as a labor resource.
