Hi, I’m Brigitte — a Canadian entrepreneur who dabbles in stand-up comedy, and professional supporter of women. I’ve been fitting sports bras for over 27 years, and when I’m not helping women feel more supported, I’m on stage telling stories through Women Wit & Wisdom or hosting Women Talk  events, a storytelling community where women share real life, real laughs, and real truth.

The Booby Gazette is where all of that comes together — humour, honesty, bodies, aging, life, and the occasional rant — written for women who like their support practical and their laughs well-earned.

I don’t sell bras. I sell support -

I don’t host events. I host voices -

 Two businesses. One mission.

True North, Fully Lifted—Not a Snowball’s Chance in Hell Our Girls Are Going South

Hey there, my lovely fellow Canadian women!

Let me just start with a little disclaimer—there isn’t a snowball’s chance in hell (or a polar vortex) that I’ll ever go full Donald Trump and switch teams to the south. Nope, I’m proudly Canadian through and through, and my e-commerce business, sportsbras.ca, is all about YOU—the amazing, resilient, and supportive women of this great country.


I know e-commerce sounds all techy and modern, but let me tell you—I’m bringing some good old-fashioned Canadian service to the game. If you’re in Calgary, don’t be surprised if you see me rocking up to your doorstep with your bra in hand, just like the milkman of days gone by (except with better support and zero chance of spoiling). Yes, your bra delivery might come with a big smile and maybe even a witty quip or two. Why? Because I believe every woman deserves the perfect fit and a bit of joy with her day!

And let’s not forget—I bring laughter to the business too, just like my comedy trio Women Wit & Wisdom comedy show. After all, a good laugh is just as uplifting as a great bra!


Why Canadian Women Are My Jam

From the Maritimes to the Rockies, I’m here for you, ladies. Whether you’re horseback riding in Alberta, running along the shores of Nova Scotia, or power walking your way through a snowy morning in Montreal, I’ve got your back (and front). Supporting Canadian women isn’t just my business; it’s my mission. When you shop at sportsbras.ca, you’re supporting a local business that’s just as proud to call Canada home as you are.

2025: The Year of More Support (Literally!)

Hold onto your toque, because 2025 is going to be HUGE for sportsbras.ca! We’re talking:

  • More Bras: Because every woman deserves options.
  • More Colours: Who says support can’t be stylish?
  • More Sizes: Because all bodies are beautiful and deserve to feel supported.
  • More Love and Respect: This isn’t just a tagline. It’s the foundation of everything we do.
  • More Uplifting Shipping: That’s right—FREE shipping all across Canada with Canada Post and UPS! Because every bra deserves a first-class journey to its new home.
  • And yes, mark my words: sportsbras.ca is set to dominate the Canadian market in the best way possible—with kindness, laughter, and unwavering dedication to helping women feel their absolute best.


A Little Witty Wisdom

Now, I know what some of you might be thinking: "What’s the big deal about bras?" Let me tell you—it’s not just about the fabric and the fit; it’s about the freedom, the confidence, and the support (literally and figuratively). And for all you skeptics out there, I’ll remind you that the right bra is life-changing. Just like poutine—you don’t really get it until you’ve had the real deal.



So here’s to us, Canadian women, and here’s to a future filled with more support than a Tim Hortons coffee line on a Monday morning. Shop local, shop proud, and let’s grow together—because there’s no place like home, and there’s no woman like a Canadian woman.

eBra Fitting Quiz

Tonight we spring forward, which means we lose an hour of sleep… but here’s the good news: a great sports bra never loses support. While the clocks jump ahead, the girls should stay right where they belong, proudly parked at 10 and 2 like a well-behaved Canadian compass. Because daylight saving time may move the clock, but a proper sports bra makes sure nothing else shifts south. ⏰💗 Since we’re talking about spring, let’s talk about our wonderfully unpredictable Canadian springs. One day y ou’re jogging in sunshine thinking summer has arrived… the next day you’re digging your gloves out of your jacket pocket because a cold wind has decided winter wasn’t quite finished yet. ❄️🌤️

Valentine’s Day has a certain energy. 💘 It’s part romance, part expectation, part “why is everything pink and shaped like a heart, including things that absolutely should not be heart-shaped?” And somehow, right around the same time, the Olympics roll in and remind us that women are capable of things that make gravity look negotiable. 🏅 So here we are. Surrounded by love stories and gold-medal moments… while many of us are trying to do a workout in a sports bra that’s holding on by thoughts, prayers, and an elastic band from 2014. 😅 And that’s when it hits me every year: love and sport actually have one big thing in common. The right support changes everything.
