The session this afternoon is entitled “women in politics” and “women in non-traditional work”, but I guess as a female politician, I never thought that being a politician was a non-traditional role for women. Perhaps it's because a number of women I knew were serving as politicians.
I know that the definition of non-traditional work has changed over the last number of decades. Whereas it once may have included physicians and lawyers, and perhaps even leaders in corporations, it now includes those in construction, mining, and engineering, and I'll add ranchers to the list, as you mentioned.
I guess my question would be for you, Jayden, because toward the end of your comments you spoke about Skills Canada. You didn't really get a chance to speak too much about it. I would like to give you the opportunity to talk a little bit about that and how it's there to empower women in non-traditional roles.
