Kathleen Wynne's win a victory for women in politics

Source:

The ascent of Kathleen Wynne to the premier’s office in Ontario is a victory for women in politics and an encouragement to coming generations considering political careers, a B.C. political scientist says. Wynne was elected leader of Ontario’s ruling Liberal party Saturday, which means she will move into the premier’s office when Dalton McGuinty officially resigns in a few days. That will make Wynne the sixth current female premier in Canada.
