Abstract
This research note explores approaches adopted by Canadian provinces to promote more representative provincial government bureaucracies. Three dimensions of employment equity are analyzed and compared for each province: the governance framework, the groups targeted, and the data reported. Each province is classified as belonging to one of four “employment equity architectures”: the absent architecture, the minimalist architecture, the partial architecture, and the comprehensive architecture. Overall, this note establishes the continuing existence of major differences in provincial approaches to fostering employment equity.
