Although her name today is synonymous with the womens suffrage movement in Canada, Nellie McClungs long and varied career covered several fieldsfrom social activist to elected politician, from novelist to journalist. McClung was instrumental in Canadian women gaining the right to vote before their British and American counterparts2016 marks the onehundredyear anniversary of womens suffrage in Manitoba, Alberta, and Saskatchewanand in women being recognized as persons eligible to sit in the Senate. McClung was a household name by the time she was elected to the Legislative Assembly of Alberta in 1921, a post she held for five years.When she settled on Vancouver Island in 1932, McClung was a highly esteemed public figure who had not only changed Canadas political landscape and influenced womens rights worldwide but had also raised five children and written a dozen bestselling books. From her beloved Island home, Lantern Lane, McClung continued to speak out against social injustice and inequality. In the late 1930s, she began to write a syndicated weekly newspaper column that served as social commentary for the years leading up to World War II. The Valiant Nellie McClung highlights a selection of those columnscovering themes as grave as war, as fundamental as the strength of the family unit, and as whimsical as the pleasure of gardeningand offers a unique reflection of our countrys history and an uncanny resonance today.
