It was during the 2012 Women’s Forum that the “Binders full of women” controversy emerged on Twitter, based on a comment made by Mitt Romney. When then Canadian Minister for the Status of Women, Rona Ambrose, chose to joke about Romney’s comments rather than attend the forum, twitter went wild. See our Storify of how it all played out here. Replay the full live blog from 2012 here.
