What
Is One Woman One Vote?
This program was created to provide women
with information about how they can become active participants in
shaping the public agenda on policies and issues that impact their
lives. One Woman One Vote is a non-partisan initiative
encouraging women to vote. This web site contains information on
how and why the initiative was created and also identifies various
ways that you can become involved. The initiative is about change,
and so is our website, visit us often to see what's new and learn
more about us. We welcome your input and participation, you can
make a difference! |

Why
Vote?
Because:

You can- the YWCA works in countries around
the world
encouraging women to vote - many fear reprisal and for
their personal
safety as they fight for their right to place a
mark on a ballot
beside a candidate’s name.
It takes only 15 minutes, but lasts for years.
You care how we are viewed on the provincial, national, and
international stages.
You care about cost of living, education, childcare,
poverty,
violence against women, and other issues such as health care.
Your choice matters as much as the choice of your spouse, or
your boss, or your partner,
or a millionaire CEO, or a
homeless person
- unless you make no choice at all.
You like the way things are, and want to make sure they stay
the same.
You are unhappy with the way things are, and want to make
sure they change
in the direction you want.
Vote.
It's your Voice.
