Is it not unfair for the Canadian national government to provide business grants just for women?

Historically and currently, women have not had equal treatment within the workforce and this remains today when it comes to seeking financing for small business ventures. To counterbalance such unfortunate discrimination, the national government offers grants for women to help get their own small business off the ground. Other prerequisites are in place, however. So, it is not like the government is giving out money to all women who ask for it. The small business proposal must still have validity and prospects if it is to receive special national government grants for women.
