"Eighty per cent of all single-parent families in B.C. are led by women, and for the first time the report showed income breakdowns between male and female-led single parent homes.

The median income for all female-led single families was $46,990 in 2019, about 70 per cent of what the median single dad income was at $66,830. In fact, at all income brackets single dads earned thousands to tens of thousands of dollars more annually than single moms."
