Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The discrimination that all governments with the exception of Ontario and Quebec have failed to address is pay equity, which refers to ensuring that men and women are paid equally for performing work of equal value. Despite decades of efforts to promote pay equity, studies have shown that women in Canada still earn significantly less than men on average. Sexual harassment, employment equity, and employment insurance are all important issues affecting Canadian women in the workforce, but they are not the discrimination that has been neglected by most Canadian governments.
