Title |
Les debuts de l’éducation sanitaire au Québec : 1880-1901
|
Abstract |
Includes information on the role played by the Montreal Local Council of Women in the health education movement at the turn of the twentieth century. During the period under discussion, the leaders of the Montreal Local Council of Women, founded in 1893, included Anglophones and Francophones, Protestants and Catholics. The first president of the Local Council was Lady Julia Drummond (1860-1942), and other prominent Anglophone members were Dr. Octavia Grace Ritchie England (1868-1948), the first woman to receive a medical degree in Quebec, and Carrie Matilda Derick (1862-1941), the first female professor in a Canadian university and the founder of McGill University's Genetics Department. In 1907, at the urging of the hierarchy of the Catholic Church in Quebec, the Francophone women founded the Comité de Dames patronnesses au sein de la Société Saint-Jean-Baptiste de Montréal, and the Montreal Local Council of Women continued as a uniquely Anglophone organization.
