Statistics Canada has said women made up about 19 per cent of corporate board seats in 2019

Statistics Canada says women made up about 19 per cent of corporate board seats in 2019, an increase from about 18 per cent from the year before even though the total number of board seats fell.

The dataset it based its observations on contains information from 7,165 corporations, a decrease from the 8,697 businesses who contributed numbers in 2018. More than 4,300 women occupied board seats in 2019, down 10.6 per cent from 4,848 a year earlier. However, the decrease in total board seats was even greater at 14.4 per cent to 22,605 from 26,416 in 2018.
