Who became the first female MP in Canada?

  1. Dr. Emily Stowe

  2. Queen Elizabeth II

  3. Agnes Macphail

  4. Nellie McClung

The correct answer is: Agnes Macphail

Agnes Macphail was the first female Member of Parliament in Canada. The other options are incorrect because - Dr. Emily Stowe was the first female physician to practice medicine in Canada, but not the first female MP. - Queen Elizabeth II is the current reigning monarch in Canada, but she is not a Member of Parliament. - Nellie McClung was a prominent suffragette and women's rights activist, but not the first female MP. Therefore, the correct answer is Agnes Macphail, who made history by becoming the first female MP in Canada in 1921.
