Real Women Of CanadaREAL Women of Canada is a socially conservative lobby group in Canada. The organization was founded in 1983. REAL stands for "Realistic, Equal, Active, for Life". The group believes that the family is the most important unit in Canadian society, and that the fragmentation of the Canadian family is a primary cause of social disorder. It lobbies the Government of Canada in favour of legislation to promotes the Judeo-Christian belief of proper family life, and to support homemaking. It also opposes many of the traditional goals of feminism, and is actively opposed to abortion and same-sex marriage in Canada. Its objectives are: - To reaffirm that the family is societys most important unit, since the nurturing of its members is best accomplished in the family setting.
- To promote the equality, advancement and well being of women, recognizing them as interdependent members of society, whether in the family, workplace or community.
- To promote, secure and defend legislation which upholds the Judeo-Christian understanding of marriage and family life.
- To support government and social policies that make homemaking possible for women who, out of necessity, would otherwise have to take employment outside the home.
- To support the right to life of all innocent individuals from conception to natural death.
Part of their economic policies to help meet their objectives are increased tax relief for single-income families, families with children, and indviduals with children. REAL Women is similar in political and social outlook to Phyllis Schlafly's Eagle Forum in the United States. External link
