Rayyan Hamoudi from "Little Mosque on the Prairie"
She's a devout, hijab-wearing Muslim feminist. Which, really... I could stop there. She's also a doctor, with an awesomely sarcastic sense of humour. And also, totally willing to stab someone with a fork in order to get around that "can't touch someone of the opposite gender that I'm not related to" rule.
Stuart/Goth Girl from "Rent-A-Goalie"
Loyal BFF to the show's central character she may be, but that doesn't mean she's afraid to speak up and tell Cake he's acting like an idiot. Or to literally knock some sense into him when he strays off the path of his "Code for Living Right". Also, she co-owns a flower shop/sex shop. AND she's a fucking awesome goalie.
Superintendent Maggie Norton from "The Border"
She's the sweet, kind, motherly figure for the team... who's also a crack shot with a gun and possesses the kind of interrogation skills that can reduce a hardened serial killer to a sobbing mess.
Um. Apparently all my kickass women today are from semi-obscure Canadian television. Yay?
