Examines the gendered division of labour in Newfoundland with a focus on fishing in the rural outports. Provides a history of women's presence in Newfoundland, including the growth of families as more women arrived as well as outport settlement. Documents the work done by women in the domestic sphere, including their control and supervision of onshore sundried fish drying for the market, a practice that lasted into the 1950s.

This paper analyzes the Communist Party of Canada's view of the woman question, the role women played in the party, and the party's successes and failures in its attempts to organize working-class women. The Communist Party's view of the woman question was shaped by the advice of the USSR and the Communist International, as well as by the party's social base and the political understanding of its own membership. The Communist Party's Women's Department helped to create a new national organization for women, the Women's Labor Leagues, which, led by Florence Custance, experienced substantial growth in the 1920s. The Communist Party gave more attention to women's inequality than had previous socialist parties, although it failed to live up to its stated aims to organize working-class women and encourage women's participation in the revolutionary movement.
