Valerie Knowles
Cairine Wilson, Canada's first woman Senator, was raised in one of Montreal's most affluent and influential families in an atmosphere of strict Presbyterianism, tempered by rugged Scots liberalism. Her appointment to the Senate by her friend Mackenzie King in 1930 was an historic event. This title presents an account of Wilson.
