Equality Seeking, Left Leaning Bookstore in Thunder Bay, Ontario.
The Northern Woman's Bookstore was a feminist-run bookstore in Thunder Bay, Ontario.
The books we carried included woman-centered, First Nations and Metis, local writers, and those addressing social, economic, and political justice. Book launches, music events, book clubs, writer’s circles, art installations, and workshops were hosted regularly by the Northern Woman’s Bookstore.
The bookstore was owned and operated by Margaret Phillips with the support of a dedicated collective of diverse, politically engaged women. The bookstore was in operation for over 25 years and owed its success to the left-of-centre, justice-minded readership of Northwestern Ontario and beyond.
The Northern Woman's Bookstore was a feminist bookstore that served both the urban centre of Thunder Bay as well as regional communities across the Northwest.
