From the article: "[Ms. Bibeau] accused Stephen Harper’s government of muzzling Canada on the international stage and failing to champion women’s rights."
===========

Obviously Ms. Bibeau is a politician looking to score political points with the naive, that much is to be expected, but her argument here is absolutely not fact-based.  Stephan Harper's really big push for foreign aid during his tenure was all about maternal health.  Of course the usual suspects found fault in everything he did and all foreign aid can be easily criticized for any number of failings, but to say that Harper foreign aid plans weren't meant to help women is patently false.
