For International Women’s Day, we’re taking a moment to reflect on the many ways women have shaped history and culture, including here in Canada.

Across generations, women have influenced communities that continue to define the country, and Parks Canada and the Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada have the honour of highlighting these persons, places and events through national historic designations.

Discover some of these stories of leadership, resilience, creativity, and change, as their journeys inspire us all to continue making progress in advancing women’s rights for an even brighter future.
