I want to live in a country where a woman who’s raped has more rights than the man who raped her.

MAGGIE MACNEIL Named Canada’s female swimmer of the year. And what a year it was. She won a bronze, silver and a gold in her signature event, the 100 butterfly at the Tokyo Olympics. cbc.ca/sports/olympics/summe…

Canadian Olympic athletes who won medals in either Tokyo or Beijing are being financially rewarded for their efforts — $20,000 for a gold, $15,000 for a silver and $10,000 for a bronze Canadian Paralympians who reached the podium in those same Games won't receive a single dollar

Later today. My @cbcsports story on why Canada's Paralympians do not receive any money for winning medals -- and why Canada's Olympians do. And how this could be the last Games cycle that's the case. “It’s such an obvious gap and it’s time to get this done"
