This will help accelerate equality in employment for groups that have been historically victims of discrimination in employment, such as women, people with a disability, Aboriginal Peoples, persons who are members of a visible minority, and persons whose mother tongue is neither French nor English and who belong to a group other than the Aboriginal Peoples group or the visible minorities group.
