The Prairie Lilies will participate in a National Day of Action on September 28 to protest Bill C-484, the so-called Unborn Victims of Crime Act. It would be great to have events in many locations across the province. The national committee meets next week and will have more details to pass along.

The Prairie Lily Feminist Society (aka the Prairie Lilies or Red Lilies) is a newly-formed society of Saskatchewan feminists. Membership is open to all women who agree with our intentions. We want as many women as possible to become involved. We intend to establish a space for women to address the issues and various conditions that impact our lives, to empower the diverse community of Saskatchewan women to have our voices heard; to provide education about and opportunity for actions which promote gender equity; to create opportunities for us to build our skills and develop mentoring relationships; and to develop a network of support, solidarity and sisterhood for women across Saskatchewan.
