Chatelaine is a Canadian women's magazine, published by Rogers Media Publishing (a subsidiary of Rogers Communications). It was first published in March 1928 by Maclean Publishing.
The magazine covers a variety of women's interests, from fashion and relationships to health information, profiles of successful women and journalism on social and political issues relevant to women.
From 1957 to 1977, the magazine's editor was Doris Anderson, under whose tenure Chatelaine was a leader in Canadian coverage of women's issues and the rise of feminism as a social phenomenon.
The magazine is also the subject of k.d. lang's song "Miss Chatelaine"; the famous line "I can't explain why I've become Miss Chatelaine" expresses lang's surprise at having been selected as the magazine's Woman of the Year in 1988.
In late 2005, editor-in-chief Kim Pittaway resigned from her post as editor after a brief tenure of 11 months.
