About

This site was developed by Canadian historian Merna Forster.

I believe there are some amazing women in Canadian history that most Canadians know nothing about. So I decided to try and change the situation by writing a book and developing a website which would serve as a guide to the topic of women in Canadian history.

Here's what I'm trying to do:

  • Develop a comprehensive site which will be the best website on the Internet on the topic of women in Canadian history
  • Create greater interest among Canadians about the topic of women in Canadian history
  • Encourage more reading of books and viewing of films and television programs about notable Canadian women
  • Assist Canadian authors and publishers (particularly the small presses) in promoting their books about women in Canadian history
  • Encourge wider celebration and a greater profile of Women's History Month in Canada in October
  • Encourage greater commemoration of the role of women in Canadian history through existing opportunities for recognition
  • Facilitate and encourage more classroom study of the role of women in Canadian history
  • Facilitate and encourage greater media coverage of the role of women in Canadian history
  • Promote new products and events associated with celebrating women in Canadian history
  • Assist Canadian businesses (especially small businesses) in selling tasteful, high-quality products that relate to women in Canadian history
  • Create such a great site that I will evenutally manage to support it through some advertising and affiliate arrangements
