I think our Prime Minister's was the first government in Canada that implemented gender parity at the cabinet level. We have many competent women. There were many competent women to choose from. There were also many competent men to choose from, probably an over-supply of the latter.
It's not just men and women. My belief is that cabinet, Parliament itself, should reflect the diversity of the nation. We have a long way to go, as you've pointed out. Only 27% of the members of the House of Commons are women. In my view, the Parliament of Canada could be more diverse as well.
