At the end of day, of course, with these programs, it all comes down to cost. Who's going to pick up that increased cost? We need to go back and remember that.... Earlier, I had spoken to you about the average increase in income for women coming into a particular company, but the average increase that women see going into trades after being in Women Building Futures is 128%, which translates into a 47% increase in tax paid.
If we extrapolate that and think about the millions of women who could be contributing 47% more income tax, we solve any issue or question about where that money is coming from. It would support letting women taking longer maternity leave, a more customized approach, and actually making sure that she has her salary while she's extending her leave. That's where the money would come from.
