Scope and content
This file contains the analysis and judgement made by the Women's Court of Canada (WCC) regarding the Supreme Court case of Gosselin v. Quebec (AG). The WCC brought together a diverse group of women, including lawyers, academics, and litigators who endeavored to rework Supreme Court of Canada equality judgments. They accomplished this by revisiting key equality-related decisions made by the Supreme Court of Canada, using equality-based arguments to rewrite these judgments, and exploring alternative outcomes. Through this process, and by creating new symbolic decisions, they challenged existing legal interpretations of equality cases and promoted a feminist perspective on equality.
