This Web feature is dedicated to teaching Canadians about Women's History, and encouraging them to become involved in recognizing women's place in Canadian history.

Here you'll find lots of information about women from all walks of life, women who make the past come alive through their struggles for equality and their contributions to innumerable facets of Canadian life in the past. You'll also find other Web links as well as a list of sites, persons and events which have already been recognized by the federal government as nationally significant.

But there still remains much to be done to improve the representation of women in Parks Canada's program. Learn how you or your group or community can help promote women's history by nominating an important Canadian site, person or event for national historic recognition.

Follow the links on the side bar and explore women's historic accomplishments: a rich legacy indeed.
