For years now—first as a journalist and now as a Member of Parliament, I’ve admired how Jay Rosenzweig has fought for the hiring, promotion and retention of women at the highest levels in the largest corporations across the country. Canada leads by example because diversity is our strength—but make no mistake—there is still much work to be done. The Rosenzweig report is a yearly wake-up call that we need to work together to ensure the advancement of women—particularly BIPOC women —in positions of senior corporate leadership. Not only is this the right thing to do—it’s the smart thing to do. Diverse women in decision-making roles will trickle down and lead to true equality across Canada.
