Canadian female athletes you oughta know

This International Women's Day, let's celebrate some of Canada's female heroes of the past and not-so distant past. If you don't already know these athletes, you should.

Celebrate history

The Edmonton Grads

They're the most successful team in Canadian history, winning an astounding 95 per cent of their matches.

From 1915 to 1940, the Edmonton Grads won 502 games and lost only 20, beating the world's best teams from the United States and Europe.

When you have those kinds of stats, you can find yourself on a Google Doodle or in a Heritage Minute.
