The Icelandic National League of North America (INLNA) was formed in 1918. Our founding convention was held on March 25, 1919 in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Since then, we have promoted cultural activities among Icelandic-North American people.

101st INLNA Convention

The INLNA is committed to protecting our members and looking out for the wellbeing of our communities. In light of the recent advisories from provincial and federal bodies, current travel restrictions, the growing number of public events being cancelled, and concern for our members amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, we have made the difficult decision in consultation with the Interlake Convention Committee to cancel the 2020 annual Convention of the Icelandic National League of North America scheduled for April 23 to 25, in Gimli, MB.

The Long Friday Trailer from Other Noises on Vimeo.

When 90% of Iceland’s women went on strike one crisp Fall day in 1975, they brought their country to its knees – and catapulted this tiny island nation to the forefront of today’s global fight for women’s rights. The unstoppable women who created and lived this revolutionary moment bring it to life in THE LONG FRIDAY, a feature documentary-in-progress.
