Think you know history?

Published Friday September 12th, 2008

For the past few months, This Week has been testing our readers' knowledge of women's history in New Brunswick with questions from 'Celebrating Achievers: A Quiz on New Brunswick Women's History", published by the New Brunswick Advisory Council on the Status of Women in 2002. This is the second-to-last installment.

36) When is International Women's Day?

37) The New Brunswick government did not employ married women until which year?

38) Our system of justice is based on the accused's right to be judged by their peers. When were women allowed to serve on juries in New Brunswick?

39) In what year was the first female plumber licensed in New Brunswick?

40) New Brunswick had one minimum wage for women and a higher one for men until which year?

Answers to these five questions can be found on page 8. The complete 45-question quiz can be viewed on the Council's website at www.acswcccf.nb.ca.
