Abstract

On 30 March 2010, eight women from the Atlantic and Pacific coasts of Canada gathered in a learning circle to discuss the role of women in Canadian fisheries. The group consisted of both indigenous and nonindigenous women, each with organizational or research experience in the fisheries. Although separated by hundreds and thousands of kilometres, the women dialled into a toll-free telephone number and formed a figurative circle in which after a speaker finished, she passed a feather to the next person, to acknowledge her turn to speak.
