Canada's come to a Conservative government, and has come to a mix of MPs of whom less than 30% are women. (That's the target number the UN has identified as being necessary for a domestic policy that adequately represents the interests of women. 22.1% of the Canadian House of Commons are women.) As a result, shit like this happens. And we need to be vocal that it is Not Okay.
