Voice Your Concerns

Voice Your Concerns! Take Action!

Women's Institute Members have been instrumental in establishing new laws and amending existing ones.  Our Members voice their concerns and initiate resolutions at the community, provincial, national and international levels.

Historically, FWIO has played a pivotal role in influencing many changes to provincial laws and practices, including:

• Mandatory stopping for school buses with flashing lights
• Installation of railway crossing signs
• Painting of white lines on provincial highways
• Implementation of easy-to-understand labels on food products
• Enforcement of the proper use of slow moving vehicle signs
• Clear markings on poison containers
• Many other initiatives!

The Advocacy Committee, comprised of WI Members, actively review and research various resolutions before submission to the Provincial Board for final approval. Once approved, a resolution is submitted to the appropriate party or level of government.

Are you interested in voicing your concerns and creating safe and secure communities?
