Mallacht mo chait ort: My cat’s curse upon you.

Henrietta Edwards established many organizations in the fight for women's rights in Canada.
Best remembered as one of the Famous Five who argued the Persons Case, she also worked to get the Dower Act passed in Alberta.
This is her story.

Sharing this again. It's from four years ago, and censorship continues to rear its ugly head. Thank you, Meg, for stating this so well.
