Article Abstract:
Women have played a valuable role in the kitchen since the beginning of civilization. However, a survey of hotels and restaurants across Canada indicates that female chefs and high-level women kitchen managers continue to be heavily outnumbered by men although the enrollment of women in cooking programs has doubled to an average of almost 15% since 1985. This would imply that many women exit the industry at some point between the apprentice and chef stage. Yet, it is possible to be both a good mother and chef if one pays attention to details and is adept at multi-tasking.

Article Abstract:
The Ontario provincial government has enacted into law a new bill on franchised business that is modeled after the Alberta Act. Franchisees and franchisors may expect the new legislation to affect franchise operations on a day-to-day basis. One key feature of the new Ontario Act is the imposition of a 'duty of fair dealing' on both parties to the franchise agreement. It also gives either party the right to sue for damages if this duty of fair dealing is breached.
