The clock is broken. Time moves forward, but our hard-won rights can slip back. Each falling grain of sand reminds us: we cannot afford to stand still. The far right is gaining ground, and the road ahead is uncertain.
On March 8th, we rise. With our fists in the air, we declare our refusal to back down. That raised fist symbolizes our collective strength. The Venus symbol in the palm of our hands stands for our freedom: our freedom to choose what we do with our bodies and our lives.
Like the resilient spider weaving its web, we keep on building a world where no one is left behind. Each victory, each added thread, strengthens our resistance. Together, we’re building a feminism that is anti-racist, anti-imperialist, and unapologetically inclusive.

World March of Women
Initiated in Québec in 2000, the World March of Women has mobilized thousands of people calling for profound and long-lasting change throughout the world. In Québec, we’ll be asserting that our solidarity is stronger than ever before as we march together on October 18, 2025, with women from all over the world. Our struggle is changing and becoming more intense as we see the rise of right-wing forces.
To join in the start of this major event, we invite you to attend the launch of the World March of Women on March 8 in Montérégie, or to be part of the demonstration organized by Women of Diverse Origins / Femmes de diverses origines (WDO/FDO) in Montréal. Details of these events will be communicated at a later date.
To learn about upcoming events associated with the World March of Women, sign up for the newsletter put out (in French) by the CQMMF, which coordinates the March in Québec.
