Okay, that's a good start anyway.
Ms. Bégin, it was interesting to me, coming from Alberta, to see that the real hourly wage growth in Canada was influenced very much by the oil sector. When it was going strong, everyone was benefiting. Now that we don't have any pipelines and the sector is struggling, it has tailed off. Workers with lower levels of education were actually ill-equipped to adjust to the downturn and we can see the result of that.
Looking at some of the other stats you brought out, we know from Mr. Michaud's testimony about a persistent gender gap when it comes to hourly wages and annual earnings, according to some studies anyway.
Ms. Bégin, you talk about jobs offering pension plan coverage. If you look at page 4, it's actually down for men and stable for women, and unionization has fallen for men but not for women.
How does that jive with the gender gap, the so-called gap where earnings are allegedly falling for women? From your stats, it looks like they're better off, at least the employees aged 17 to 64.
