Famous 5 Foundation (Canada)
http://www.famous5.ca/

From "Echoes of History" newsletter, June 11, 2009:

It’s hard to believe that prior to 1929, women in Canada
weren’t considered “persons” under the law. Even worse,
women in Canada were also prohibited from owning property.
If a woman’s husband died, any property he owned was
inherited by the nearest male relative or other male of his
choice who would then look after and support the widow.
Canadian women were excluded from public office as senators,
certain professions and universities. Emily Murphy set out
to change all that.
