BPW Clubs in Canada
BPW Canada was founded in 1930, at the same time as our International BPW Federation, which now has clubs in more than 100 countries around the world. We are a non-sectarian, non-profit, non-partisan organization that works to improve economic, political, social and employment conditions for women in the workforce in Canada. BPW Canada develops the professional and leadership potential of women in Canada through education, awareness, advocacy and mentoring within a supportive network. We are Women Working for Working Women.
We have clubs across the country (see list, below), which are involved in some key issues that affect working women. These include childcare, pay equity, incomes for senior women, and access to EI maternity/parental benefits for self-employed and business-owning women. A major priority is to see more women involved in politics at all levels.
