The Opening

In honour of October being “Women’s History Month” in Canada we are reminded that on Oct 18, 1929 Lord John Sankey recognizes that women have legal status as “persons,” thereby paving the way for the participation of Canadian women in public life and politics.

The difficult legal battle begun in 1927 by five Alberta women activists, later known as the “Famous Five,” is a decisive turning point in the struggle for women’s equality in Canada.

Unveiling of a plaque commemorating the five Alberta women whose efforts resulted in the Persons Case, which established the rights of women to hold public office in Canada. (Front row, L-R): Mrs. Muir Edwards, daughter-in-law of Henrietta Muir Edwards; Mrs. J.C. Kenwood, daughter of Judge Emily Murphy; Mrs. Nellie McClung. (Rear row, L-R): Senators Iva Campbell Fallis, Cairine Wilson
