General guidelines
There are two objectives for this assignment.
Objective A: present a critical sociological analysis of a chosen social problem in the Canadian context
Analysis: More than just identifying or describing the problem, but breaking it down into smaller units to understand the whole, using the sociological imagination and conceptual/theoretical tools. You may of course combine your analysis with empirical data using statistics, graphs, charts, etc. to illustrate the issue as well as your sociological stance.

Based on your analysis, discuss the practical directions that policy should take to address/mitigate the issue. You can think of this part as policy evaluation and recommendation:

Take a position on whether social problems are constructed to perpetuate the status quo or whether they are simply social problems. Make sure you discuss both sides and how each impacts the larger societal issue of gender inequity
