The achievement of the vote in 1918 is often celebrated as a
triumphant moment in the onward, upward advancement of Canadian
women. Acclaimed historian Joan Sangster looks beyond the shiny
rhetoric of anniversary celebrations and Heritage Minutes to show
that the struggle for equality included gains and losses,
inclusions and exclusions, depending on a woman's race, class, and
location within the nation. She travels back in time to tell a new,
more inclusive story for a new generation and exposes not only the
fissures of inequality that cut deep into our country's past but
also their weaknesses in the face of resistance, optimism, and
protest - an inspiring legacy that resonates to this day.
