is hard, but there is no better time to be an ambitious woman than today. You have access to a network of support and advice from the countless women who blazed these trails before you. So if you are being called to do something great, take the first step in making it happen — it only gets better from there.” With a broader world view, Stefanson shares well wishes for all women to enjoy a happy International Women’s Day on March 8. “International Women’s Day is an important time to celebrate everything we have accomplished in the advancement of the rights of women and girls in Canada. However, it is also an important time to reflect on all of the work we have left to do to ensure that all women and girls have the opportunity to fulfil their dreams,” she says. “This is particularly true in countries where women continue to struggle to achieve basic rights and freedoms, including the right to an education and the right to hold political office. We must continue this truly international movement to fight for the rights of women and girls around the world.” ◗
