Abstract

In Canada, the term “feminism” has begun to emerge since the late 19th century when there was the first wave of Canadian feminism. The era of this initial movement advocating for women’s right to vote came to an end around 1920. The second wave, which ended around 1985, was in support of equality in the fields of education and employment and advocated for a movement to end the violence against women. With regard to the third wave, it overlapped with those of the previous generations to a great extent, and the concept of the third wave came to an end in the 20th century. Finally, with the argument proposed by many feminists, the fourth wave of Canadian feminism arose with the assistance from technology.
