Allowing women to reach their full potential is the biggest step to help stop world poverty and fight against ignorance." Tammy MacWilliams , Clyde River, PE September 11, 2008 |

No one deserves abuse, regardless of sex, ethnicity, or any other personal attribute." Smiljka Tasic , Toronto February 4, 2008 |
| "
first and foremost I am a woman! One who believes I am NOT a second class citizen in this world. The violence that continues against women across this world sickens me. Every person on this planet has a woman to thank for their very life, yet society continues to demean, oppress, silence, rape and slaughter women daily all over the world. Women are the most persecuted group in history and our oppression continues today, yet for some reason it is almost taboo to talk about. I am sick of being silent, I am sick of this world telling me I'm not good enough, and I am sick of waiting for change. Nobody defines us but ourselves and no human on earth deserves what women are continuously subjected to! We can stop these atrocities, but first we need to love ourselves enough to know that each and every one of us in this world deserves change! I am sick of being sick of things so watch out world, cus here comes my generation. " Michelle , Saskatoon January 9, 2008 |
