“Never explain, never retract, never apologize. Just get the thing done and let them howl.”
Nellie McClung
In celebration of International Women’s Day 2024, l am remembering the contribution of Canada’s Famous Five. These remarkable women, Emily Murphy, Nellie McClung, Louise McKinney, Irene Parlby, and Henrietta Muir Edwards, made significant contributions in the fight for gender equality and women’s rights in Canada. Together, they worked for the right of women to be recognized as persons in the eyes of the law.
The Famous Five’s Legacy
The Famous Five worked tirelessly to secure the recognition of women as persons under Canadian law. Their perseverance and dedication led to a historic victory in 1929 when the Supreme Court of Canada ruled in favour of recognizing women as persons. This ruling marked a major milestone in the journey towards gender equality in Canada, granting women the right to hold public office, serve on juries, and be treated as equals under the law.
Honoring Their Efforts
The ongoing legacy of the Famous Five serves as a source of inspiration and a reminder of the progress achieved in the fight for gender equality. Their dedication and determination continue to resonate, encouraging all to strive for a more equitable and just society.
“The rejoicing all through Canada was not so much that it opened the door of the Canadian Senate to women, as it was that it recognized the personal entity of women, her separate individuality as a person.”
Henrietta Muir Edward

Women are Persons! by Barbra A Peterson“My goal has always been to promote women through my art but also to depict them on an approachable, human scale. People seem to respond to that combination in the Famous Five sculpture – it seems to draw them in, make them want to interact with these women and connect with their story at a personal level.”
Barbara A. Paterson
