Canadian Association for Equality
The Canadian Association for Equality (CAFE) is a Canadian non-profit organisation. CAFE has frequently been characterised as a men's rights group by sources, though the organization denies this. In March 2014 the Canadian Association for Equality was granted charitable status by the Canada Revenue Agency, making it the first charity focused on men's issues.[1]
CAFE is sometimes portrayed as a moderate and academic voice, particularly by members of men's movement, such as author Warren Farrell, though media reports have characterised the group as controversial, and various feminist, student, and anti-domestic violence groups associate CAFE with men's rights organisations such as A Voice for Men. CAFE spokesperson Justin Trottier has denied this.[2]
CAFE hosts a regular series of speakers and talks, featuring speakers such Warren Farrell, former University of Ottawa English Professor Janice Fiamengo, and McGill Professors Katherine Young and Paul Nathanson. Other events have included a presentation by York University Sociologist Dr. Robert Kenedy on the new discipline of male studies, a talk by National Post columnist Barbara Kay on family courts and fatherhood, and a talk by prostate cancer survivor Aaron Bacher on men's health. The group has also hosted anthropologist Lionel Tiger.[3]
CAFE runs the Canadian Centre for Men and Families in Toronto.
