Yes, the granting agencies really have very good parental leave plans and policies, as do the universities generally in Canada. In fact, in that case we do much better than the U.S. I really feel that the policies that are in place today are reasonably fair.
I think, though, that the issue is much deeper. I know the honourable Kirsty Duncan is an expert in this, and I've heard her speak about it.
Really, there are still biases in the system with regard to hiring and promotion. I think that's really where we need much more support for educating our colleagues and really putting in place the necessary checks and balances in the context of both hiring and promoting within academia, particularly in the research areas where often there's a male dominance, shall I say. We still see this in engineering and computer science, in the STEM areas, and we really need to be promoting women and equity groups within these areas to cash in on the great talent we have in Canada.
