For Women’s History Month, the Canada Games Council wants to shine a spotlight on some of the great female athletes who have competed on the Canada Games field of play. Throughout the 56-year history of the Canada Games, countless women have inspired the nation through their grit, determination, and passion for sports. These former Canada Games athletes and coaches have gone on to break international records, win Olympic, Paralympic and world championship medals, become leaders in their communities, and open doors for the next generation. We thank and congratulate the thousands of women and girls who have sparked greatness at the Canada Games and hope to inspire all those who work towards their goals.

Every February, Canadians across the country celebrate the accomplishments and contributions of Black Canadians who, throughout history, have played a significant role in making Canada the culturally diverse, compassionate and prosperous nation that it is today.
