Our Proud Heritage
Nellie McClung, member of the Famous Five, was active in the formation of the original Calgary club in 1927 (originally called the Current Events Club). BPW Calgary was one of the six charter members of the Canadian Federation of Business and Professional Women’s Clubs formed in 1930, and also placed a plaque in th Senate in 1934 to commemorate the Persons Case which gave women “Persons” status in Canada and in turn, the British Commonwealth. BPW Canada is part of an International Federation of Clubs now established in more than 88 countries. Our members have lobbied for women’s rights provincially, nationally and internationally. The International Club enjoys consultative status with the United Nations. Canadian astronaut Roberta Bondar is a patron of the club, and within the Calgary region, you can find club archives displayed in the Glenbow Museum.
