Status of Women committee  I'm not sure if I understood your point correctly, but tell me if I'm wrong. I have some numbers, like the share of women university professors. In 2006 it was 46%, and that's a 7% increase compared to 10 years earlier.

Status of Women committee  And assistants. They're females; that's right. For colleges and other vocational schools, the proportion of females is 53%, and that's an increase of only 1%. And for secondary and elementary school teachers, it's 74%.

Status of Women committee  It's the reverse issue, with not enough males.

Status of Women committee  I have to find them.

Status of Women committee  I have the firefighter statistics right here.

Status of Women committee  The female firefighters were 3% in 2006. That is a substantial increase from the 1% in 1996. Female correctional services officers are 32%, compared to 24%. It's the same for bylaw enforcement and other regulatory officers, 32%. Female police officers are 20%, compared to 13%.

Status of Women committee  Sure.

Status of Women committee  It's the same answer. We will have to get you the numbers for that.

Status of Women committee  We're going to provide you with that as well.

Status of Women committee  Thank you. As to what will happen in the future, I would like to mention the Canadian Occupational Projection System or COPS—I do not know what it is called in French—which falls under Human Resources and Skills Development Canada. That department uses various data we provide to

Status of Women committee  You are probably correct. I cannot give you the figures today, because I do not have them with me. But if you want to know the salaries for non-traditional trades and “non-non traditional trades“, if I may use that term, we could send them to you.

Status of Women committee  I must remind you that we have seen an increase in the number of women in occupations other than the trades: the professions and management.

Status of Women committee  I will get you the data later.

Status of Women committee  Yes, I will.

Status of Women committee  Yes.
