Given the privileging of internal bureaucratic expertise as outlined above, the question is whether GBA as currently practised in Canada risks reinforcing the perceptions of well-educated, predominantly white women as if they were the perceptions of all women. This can lead to polices that, while they may have been subjected technically to a gender analysis, may not meet the needs of the populations they affect.
Étant donné qu'elle privilégie l'expertise bureaucratique interne, comme on l'a vu plus haut, il faut se demander si l'analyse comparative ainsi qu'elle se pratique au Canada ne risque pas de renforcer l'impression que les perceptions des femmes instruites, surtout blanches, sont interprétées comme celles de toutes les femmes.
