In Quebec there was a law about pay equity. Its quite thorough but things are not as simple as educational requirements, there are a lot of factors that go towards the salary paid.
In my work place out of 20 jobs the majority which were women positions (17/20) only 1 was underpaid and it was in fact a "man/neutral job" but just happened to be occupied by women recently,
Women are stuck behind in terms of earnings because of social construct.
If you opt-out of having a family etc... women can/do out earn men. You can also have a family but do what men do (except for the minimal biological requirement).
