Who We Are
Women’s Canadian Club is a non-profit, non-political, non-partisan and non-sectarian organization; and it welcomes women and men as members.
Our Mission:
Women’s Canadian Club, London, Ontario is a membership-based speakers organization providing monthly meetings on topics dedicated to preserving our Canadian identity, increasing our interest in matters affecting the welfare of our country, informing us about Canada’s part in world affairs and acknowledging the outstanding accomplishments of young people in our community.
We believe:
- in Canada,
- that it is important to provide a forum and audience for passionate speakers,
- in broadening our minds by learning about many diverse topics,
- that it is important to foster an interest in public affairs,
- in cultivating an understanding of Canadian culture,
- in providing a forum for global issues, and
- in supporting the youth in our community.
Our 2024-2025 Speaker Series began in September 2024 with a full line up of exciting speakers. Meetings are held the 2nd Thursday of each month from September through March at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel (300 King St, London ON) on the 2nd Floor, Ballroom. In April, we hold a Spring Luncheon with special pricing.
On February 6, 2024, the Women’s Canadian Club of London is pleased to welcome DR. ANGELA ROBERTS, the sixth participant of the 2024-2025 Speaker Series.
