In 2020, I made this video essay about the complicated, painful, powerful legacy of the Famous 5, the magnificent, deeply flawed women who made equal rights in Canada reality. youtu.be/a_HhQP3HoxU?si=cuwZy_ #PersonsCase #PersonsDay #FamousFive #SenateofCanada #Vriend #abpoli #Edmonton #yeg #Alberta #Canada #eugenics #lgbtq

  11. 94 years ago, on October 18, 1929, Lord Sankey stated:
    "The exclusion of women from all public offices is a relic of days more barbarous than ours. And to those who would ask why the word 'person' should include females, the obvious answer is, why should it not?
    It is mindboggling that there are women alive today that were not considered persons under the law.
    Hats off to the Famous Five for their courage and tenacity!

  16. One of the people I do miss on the bird site is lawyer and amateur historian Charlie Feldman…who reminds us that today is the anniversary of the appointment of the first woman to the Senate of Canada.
