As of June 4, 2020, Public Health Agency of Canada weekly updates report that 57% of COVID-19 infections and 54% of deaths are among women. The various economic, social, and physical stressors that women face during the pandemic are undoubtedly having an adverse impact on mental health as well. As a community of dedicated and caring health care providers for women, the obstetriciangynaecologists of Canada must continue to advocate for the long-lasting systemic changes that are needed at all levels of society to ensure gender equity for women, especially during pandemic times.	./cache/cord-323658-lwr0rcap.txt	./txt/cord-323658-lwr0rcap.txt
