101st Canadian Heroine-2005 Contest

Who Is Your Canadian Heroine?

Dundurn Press, celebrating the publication of Merna Forster's book, 100 Canadian Heroines, is sponsoring this contest for anyone 12-16 years of age & living in Canada. The heroine must not be among Forster's first '100 Heroines'. A brief biography of the heroine (2-3 pages) is required, and the winner's entry will be published in Forster's next book of Canadian heroines.
April 30th, 2005 is the contest deadline.
See Dundurn Press's website for details: http://www.dundurn.com/contests.html

To see which Canadian women are among the first one hundred, be sure to read 100 Canadian Heroines & have a look at
