Absolutely. There is such an important distinction between quotas and targets. I think a lot of the discussion around this has been fuelled by European examples.
You have probably heard from some women's organizations that are very keen on having quotas based on European experience. The problem with the European experience is that they have no indigenous populations to speak of, except in a few countries, and immigration is a relatively recent phenomenon, especially from racialized countries, so I don't think using the European experience is helpful.
To your point—please tell me what community you're from.
