I can't speak to the United Kingdom or other countries. What I can encourage the committee to do is to look at all levels of government and women's representation in them.
The last comprehensive study that was done by the Federation of Canadian Municipalities still showed that 16% of municipal governments do not have a single woman on city council, or municipal council.
In terms of civics resilience, look at the grassroots, local levels and all levels of government. This shows the more complex barriers and where they still are, versus looking at just a federal level.
