​STATEMENT RE QUEBEC'S PROPOSED BILL 21
The Montreal Lakeshore University Women’s Club is proud to be part of a diverse and multicultural Quebec. We are an organization committed to the promotion of human rights and justice. We support the rights of citizens to express their religion and culture in a free and democratic society in their choice of religious symbols or dress. This right would be denied to some men and women by Bill 21. 
​Founded in 1957, the Montreal Lakeshore University Women’s Club (MLUWC) is a nonprofit organization of more than 200 women graduates. Monthly meetings and a wide variety of interest groups encourage fellowship and stimulate interest in current issues. Our goals are to use our education and professional training to
  • foster cultural, social and political awareness
  • develop sound educational values
  • perform community service.
MLUWC works to influence public policy through advocacy and encourages education by offering scholarships and bursaries.
CFUW is the largest affiliate of Graduate Women International (GWI), an organization founded in 1919 that works to empower women and girls through lifelong education for leadership, decision making and peace.
Other MLUWC affiliations include membership in the Montreal Council of Women (MCW) and a donor relationship with the Virginia Gildersleeve International Fund (VGIF).
