Why did Canadian Gideon leave Gideon International?
It was probably because the Canadians changed their bylaws to admit non-professionals or non-businessmen into membership. I, as a Gideon member, received an email from the International saying they were accepting the Canadian's withdrawal, but failed to be explicit as to why. Last Sept. the Canadians narrowly failed to change the rules, but must have done so recently. Can not find anything on Google to confirm this. If anyone knows otherwise please correct me. Rendall Gray March 31 newsletter from Canada Gideons indicates the government of Canada requires compliance with financial reporting on funds leaving the country such that Gideons International was not able or willing to comply with.

Can women become gideons?
According to the book the Gideons distribute, there is no longer bond or slave, Jew or Greek, male or female, we are 'all one' in Christ Jesus. As Gideons simply distribute God's Word freely, there can be no reason for this function to be restricted by a person's gender, so far that reason, and on account of the urgency to share the Gospel by means of Scripture distribution, women can join the Gideons in many places, including the UK, Sweden and Canada. Some other countries sadly still discriminate, but this is now beginning to change
Do Gideons believe God is Jesus?
The Gideons are not actually a denomination of Christianity, but a Christian organization officially called "Gideons International" whose mission is to spread the word of God by handing out Bibles to people who might never otherwise encounter it. So the Gideons don't have specific beliefs (like whether Jesus is completely God or if he was something else) and can come from a variety of denominations. However, most Christians do believe that Jesus is God, so most Gideons are probably going to believe that, too. I hope that answered your question.
