Collage of portraits and historical photographs featuring several women arranged against a light background. At the upper left is a pencil portrait of Charlotte Small with braided hair and a headscarf. To the upper right are smaller portraits including Barbara Frum speaking into a radio microphone and Maud Abbott in an academic gown. In the center are colour and black-and-white portraits of Michelle Douglas in a Canadian Armed Forces uniform and Judy LaMarsh wearing glasses and a pearl necklace. Along the lower section are Carrie Best reading a newspaper titled β€œThe Clarion,” Kim Campbell wearing medals in a formal portrait, Hide Hyodo Shimizu teaching two children in front of a chalkboard reading β€œHastings Park,” and Bobbie Rosenfeld seated with medals and a trophy. On the right side is a large image of Mary Two-Axe Earley gesturing while speaking, wearing glasses and a large pendant necklace. A faint β€œCanadian History Ehx” logo appears near the center of the collage.

It is International Women's Day.
There have been many, many amazing women who have shaped Canada's history.
I have chosen to feature ten of those women.
These are their amazing stories.

On this International Women’s Day, we remain vigilant about what we must protect.

And we remain determined about accomplishing the work ahead.

I’ve never done it myself but several of my clients do this. Most of them use a combo of Square (you can get a small card reader for physical card transactions) but also they have a QR sign with a Paypal option. Some phone also can take card payments as long aa you’re signed into the right app

I live relatively close enough that the US East Coast isn’t that much of a stretch to travel along. But not even the chance to see Wxm play will get me to cross that border right now. Disappointed they couldn’t add at least one Canadian stop.

We were just talking about this in a chat. E Asia is a HUGE market and their fans can be very loyal and love buying merch. As a Canadian, I’m disappointed there’s no stop here at all. πŸ‘ŽπŸΌ

Oh interesting! I watched a couple of episodes of the US one after the UK one ended but couldn’t get into it. I definitely need a rewatch of the UK show. Mike was so sweet and supportive
