Canada took a big step toward gender equality 100 years ago. On May 24, 1918, the Canadian government granted the right to vote to Caucasian women who were British subjects and 21 years of age. By 1960, this right had been extended to all Canadian women. ow.ly/U1gh30k9iCX | Library and Archives Canada
