It's not intuition. I am a manager in big tech. I see the resumes that come in and who work in our offices and at other locations. Call it a very good sample size based on 20 years in the industry. THe number of women have increased, but they are primarily not who you think they are. It's good for Canada's economy. I think it's not the increase people were targeting. Most of these people got their bachelor's in their native country.

No. I think it is immigration from Asia (China and India) and maybe also Eastern Europe. Most of the women I see doing coding are Asian.

I wonder how much of the increase in Science and tech was due to immigration from Asia and Eastern Europe. I suspect a good percentage. I work in tech and most of the women I see actually doing the engineering, development, etc are Asian women.
