This was interesting:

"Since taking power in late 2015, the Liberal government has granted more knowledge and language waivers than the previous government, but Stone said it is not enough and the process is open to applicants only after at least three failed attempts to pass the citizenship test.

Under the Conservative government, between 200 and 400 waivers were granted yearly. In 2016, the Liberal government issued 2,378 waivers."
 
Anyone want to hazard an analysis on why there appears to be a gender discrepancy in citizenship test/language requirement results or comment on the apparently different ways the various governments are responding to the issue?
