There's also access to experts. You can't send pay equity to a body that knows absolutely nothing about it. That's a very serious issue. At least with proactive legislation it goes to an expert.
I want to make a quick comment about our sisters in Quebec.
Within the last couple of years, the Quebec government has done a study on their pay equity legislation. It's been implemented for a period of 10 years. One of the big concerns was that employers were saying, “If we implement pay equity, businesses are going to close and people will be out of work, so we might as well pay women a little less and keep them employed.” The study in Quebec found the exact opposite. Businesses did not close. It also found that if employers were not forced to implement pay equity, 85% of employers would not do it.
Those are very serious issues. I would recommend that our sisters from Quebec share that, because it's a very good study.
