She Named It Canada Because That's What It Was Called

The Corrective Collective’s single-issue comic, published in 1971, offers a pointed, satirical look at Canadian history through a feminist and anti-colonial lens. Associated with the grassroots Vancouver-based collective, this work reexamines the nation’s founding myths with a wry title that pokes fun at colonial naming conventions. A landmark of early Canadian underground comix and feminist cartooning, it matters for its bold, corrective approach to a history often left unchallenged.
