This is super-interesting, because this is a question very close to my heart. In 36 years in the military as a maritime helicopter pilot, I always felt like a square peg that had to fit into a round hole. I never felt like the rest.
I spent a lot of time on a fellowship looking at inclusion and diversity in the CAF. I wish there was one answer, one thing that we could identify as what is required, but it's across the spectrum. Inclusion is across the spectrum. When we look at our human resources policy, when we look at our health services, when we look at our equipment, when we look at our succession planning, when we look at our careers and family services, we see that the Canadian Armed Forces were designed by men for men. It's a reality to which we have to adjust.
However, now we have to go back and look at everything we do—all our policies—and look at each and every one of them to make sure women and diverse people feel like they belong in the CAF. It's not only one piece; there are a gazillion—that's a mathematical term—pieces that need to be changed.
