On Aug 27, 1927, at Emily Murphy’s Edmonton home, the #Famous5 signed a letter to the federal government, which sparked debate on Mar 14, 1928, whether the word ‘persons’ in Section 24 of the BNA Act of 1867 included women! bit.ly/4bPq3Dd #Ifeelequal #PersonsCase

Today on #PersonsDay, we honour the #FamousFive whose case paved the way for some women to participate equally in #Canada. It is also a time to recognize those that work tirelessly to strengthen those rights in an effort to include all women. #PersonsCase #WomensHistoryMonth

Today is #PersonsDay which gave some women the right to be appointed to the Senate in 1929 & to be included in the definition of "persons". 5 women launched a legal challenge & 1 of them was Nellie McClung, Founding Member of BPW Calgary. #PersonsCase #GenderEquality #FamousFive
It is #WomensHistoryMonth and #PersonsDay! Nellie McClung (1873-1951) fought for women's voting rights and was part of the #FamousFive involved in the #PersonsCase. Many scholars now find her ideology insufficiently inclusive. biographi.ca/en/bio/mooney_… 📷@LibraryArchives @WAGE_FEGC
