CELEBRATING WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH

Released on October 1, 2007

Each year, Canada celebrates Women's History Month in October and marks Persons Day on October 18, the day in 1929 when women were given legal recognition as "persons" and the right to sit in the Canadian Senate.

"Women's History Month provides an opportunity to recognize and celebrate women's achievements, their roles and their contributions to the development of our country," Minister responsible for Status of Women Judy Junor said. "Understanding the challenges women have faced and overcome throughout our history is an important part of understanding and overcoming today's barriers to equality."

This year's national theme is Celebrating Immigrant Women in Canada. The theme is intended to raise awareness of immigrant women's contributions to Canadian history and of the significance of Canadian citizenship to immigrant women.

"The women who immigrated here during the early 1900s helped shape this province and preserve the traditions that are reflected in the multiculturalism our province enjoys today," Junor said.
