  • Trailblazers of the FIRST 100 YEARS
    Women of the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba Trailblazers OF THE FIRST 100 YEARS 1916 – 2016 TIVE ASS LA EM IS B G L E Y L MANITOBA On January 28, 1916, Bill No. 4 – An Act to amend “The Manitoba Election Act” received Royal Assent. The passage of this Act granted most Manitoba women the right to vote and to run for public office. Manitoba was the first province in Canada to win the right to vote for women. Nellie McClung was one of the Manitoba women involved in campaigning for the women’s right to vote in 1916. She was also one of Canada’s Famous Five who initiated and won the Persons Case, to have women become recognized as persons under Canadian law in 1929. In recognition of Manitoba’s centennial of most women receiving the right to vote, we pay tribute to a select handful of women trailblazers who achieved first in their field since that time. 2 TRAILBLAZERS 1916 - 2016 Trailblazers OF THE FIRST 100 YEARS Foreword by JoAnn McKerlie-Korol, Director of Education and Outreach Services of the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba On January 28, 1916, legislation passed that granted women the right to vote and to run for public office. On June 29, 1920, the first woman, Edith Rogers, was elected to represent the constituency of Winnipeg. This was just the beginning of the “firsts” for Manitoba’s women in the Legislative Assembly. Celebrating the first 100 years since the passage of this legislation, only 51 women have been elected to the Manitoba Legislative Assembly as elected MLAs and only a small number have served as Officers of the Legislative Assembly.
