CELEBRATING INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY 3
#BreakTheBias
Resilient. It's a word that women's
rights leaders have embodied
to achieve the goals we've
accomplished over the centuries.
It also describes how Manitobans have
responded to, and navigated through, the
testy waters of the past two years.
As we celebrate International Women's
Day, the Free Press encountered the
happy problem of having an abundance of
resilient women that we could highlight,
and it was difficult to choose just a few to
share their amazing stories. We spotlight
CEOs of businesses and non-profits, local
entrepreneurs, a groundbreaking politician
and a future leader of tomorrow.
These individuals have remarkable stories
of overcoming difficulties, embracing
positive goals, giving back to the
community and possessing a deep love
of the province where they live.
Join us in celebrating the women
who understand the meaning of being
resilient. Let's hope their stories will inspire
us to follow that lead!
