Heather Mallick, feisty columnist for the Toronto Star, today celebrates
Canada's History -- "this wonderful magazine" -- for the exploration of great Canadian women ... and some of the obstacles they overcame -- that leads the current issue.
I’m grateful to this wonderful magazine for information I knew only vaguely: university education was routinely denied to women until the late 19th century, blatant wage discrimination only became illegal 60 years ago, and medicine and law, forget it.
Yet women did things that would rattle the future, as Canada’s History describes.
Available now.
