One hundred and fifty years ago in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, 23 men met for the Charlottetown Conference that led to Canadian Confederation. Visions of Canada began before them and continue since. The Prince Edward Island women's organizations that planned the Bold Vision project wanted to celebrate the historic accomplishments of the Charlottetown Conference but acknowledge that in 1864 the voices and experiences of women, Aboriginal peoples, racialized people, people with disabilities, and many more groups were excluded from the formal discussions. It is our bold vision that a diversity of women's voices is included in the ongoing discussions of nation-building that a country as young as Canada must have. So, in this context, we asked, what would a vision for Canada look like that includes the voices and experiences of women from across Canada? In this anthology, 23 women visionaries answer that question in essays, interviews, poems, and artwork.
