From the end of the nineteenth century to the middle of the twentieth century, the press was the pre-eminent source of information in Canadian society. While the dominant voice of the Fifth Estate was undoubtedly male, a diverse and dispersed group of Canadian women sought and won access to this powerful domain. They were able to do this because they were talented, ambitious, persistent, and, paradoxically, because they were women.
