Pay equity 'makes us proud to be curlers and role models': Jennifer Jones

When it was announced two week ago pay equity was coming to Canada's national curling championships, Jennifer Jones was bursting with pride. "As a mom of daughters, I want them to be able to reach for the stars and do it in an equal way," the 2014 Olympic champion said.

Canadian skip Jennifer Jones, shown in this 2018 file photo hugging her children Isabella (left) and Skyla (right), says pay equity for the winners of the men's and women's national curling championships is "a great step in the right direction and makes us proud to be curlers and role models for all these young women chasing their dreams."
