Thank you, Madam Chair.
If I could go back for a moment to follow up on the questions that were asked with respect to the report we had from Statistics Canada earlier this week. The report indicated that while women are almost caught up with respect to their education, and about to outstrip and surpass men, their income still hasn't caught up. Women's income is still low.
I wonder if you have done any research with respect to seeing what the correlations are and what's causing that delay? You may have done that as a result of the equity studies. Could you give us an idea of what's holding that back? What are the impacts on that—apart from discrimination at the workplace, which could be happening, and other situations, and women still working in certain traditional jobs? Why are they going into traditional jobs if they have university degrees and the same education? I wonder if you have done any studies on that and can tell us why?
