Thank you, Madam Chair.
I want to thank the witnesses for making their presentations and preparing for today's meeting.
My question is for Ms. Dart.
We are talking about fairly firm quotas. Other witnesses, including the National Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada and the Canada research chairs program, told us they have a 30% objective. Yet it seems that, for Canadian universities, the standard is 15%. That is an issue you brought up.
You have a great deal of expertise on the economy.
Ms. Baker, from the University of York, came to talk about microeconomics. I just want to get your sense on it. Sure, with or without quotas, we have to work towards changing some of the policies to get there. I just want to get your thoughts about the World Economic Forum she mentioned and consider the lens of microeconomics and how we can change as a government when we look at infrastructure programs and the question of investing in roads versus the social side.
