International Women's Day

The NFB is offering a free streaming of Karen Cho's award-winning NFB feature documentary STATUS QUO? The unfinished business of feminism in Canada at www.nfb.ca/iwd, March 8 -10, 2013. It's part of Know Your History! — a week-long offering of 50 films about women.

Toronto – February 28, 2013 – To commemorate this year’s International Women’s Day, marked on March 8 every year, UFCW Canada is proud to assist Local Unions, activists, friends and supporters in celebrating this important day of recognition and achievement through a new poster that is now freely available for sharing in workplaces, schools and social media networks.

The 2013 International Women’s Day – available in both English and French – is now available for downloading by clicking here or by visiting www.ufcw.ca/posters.

Each year, March 8 and the week of March 8 provide an opportunity to take stock of our progress towards gender equality and to honour the contributions women have made and are making — both in Canada and around the world.

Celebrate this important day of commemoration by joining the IWD events in your community.
