Flashpoint Females Are Only Garnish

I find that Flashpoint is one of those shows that I want to watch but usually don't. The reason is that it it seems, at least to me, that there is a missing element. That missing element is a serious role for the females in the series. Presently the females are being used merely as garnish, incapable of doing the real jobs of the males in the series. If the females were given roles equal to their males counterparts I believe that this show might gain some legs. I'm betting the absence of a serious female role is also the reason for the small number of fans in the fanclub. This show needs an attractive female who can kick ass as well as the guys (eg. Fringe, X Files, The women of "24", Greys Anatomy...). Presently the females on this show are little more than glorified secretaries. What do you think?
