“We cannot all succeed when half of us are held back.” – Malala Yousafzai
Canadian women (and allies) have come together in a grassroots effort to support initiatives happening on January 21, 2017 for human rights.
As a secular humanist organization, CFI Canada stands up to defend the rights of women, LGBT persons, people of minority faiths and people of no faith.
- When religion is imposed on women’s bodies, we fight back.
- When religion is used as an excuse to discriminate against LGBT
persons, we fight back. - When absence of religion or religious differences are used to justify restricting human rights, we fight back.
A Canadian Delegation will be participating in the Women’s March on Washington, DC.
