Hi Mrs. Doucet,
My name is Catherine Dubé. I’m a reporter for ‘L’actualite’, the leading French-Canadian news magazine and I’m preparing a feature article about work-family balance.
I would like to read the following book chapter:
McKay, L. Marshall, K and Doucet, A. (in press, 2011) “Fathers and Parental Leave in Canada: Policies, Practices and Potential” in Jessica Ball and Kerry Daly (eds). Engaging Fathers in Social Change: Lessons from Canada, Vancouver: UBC Press.
Do you have a PDF copy of it ?
I would also very much like to talk to you about paternity leave in Québec and Canada. Would you be available next week for an interview?
Thank you very much for your attention,
Catherine Dube
