An awful case, yes, and likely motivated at least somewhat by revenge, but a rare case. Far more often the father will want nothing to do with a child unless it was planned in a committed relationship.
And for those who questioned ways that men and women are not equal--I'm not sure how things are in Canada, obviously, but the gap in the US is evident and harmful. Have some stats and graphs with real hard facts.

Women are paid less than men, even when they have the same qualifications and work the same hours. Women who work full time earn only 77 percent of what men make—a 22 percent gap in average annual wages. Discrimination, not lack of training or education, is largely the cause of the wage gap. Even with the same qualifications, women earn less than men. In 2007, full time, year round female workers aged 25 to 32 with a bachelor's degree were paid 14 percent less than men.

A bit dated, to be sure, but these problems haven't been solved in 4 short years.
