Janet Smith – Standing in Possibility

A Memoir of Resilience and Hope is a book about the author’s secrets and their emotional impact on both her personal and working life. Janet Smith was a pioneer in many areas, a woman who, smashing through the Federal Government’s glass ceiling, become a Deputy Minister in Ottawa, often as the first woman ever to be in the positions she held. At the same time, Smith’s personal saga first preceded and then overlapped those milestones.
