Ruth Ellen Brosseau
Ruth Ellen Brosseau is a Canadian politician known for her unexpected election as a federal New Democratic Party (NDP) member in 2011, which marked the beginning of the ‘orange wave’ in Quebec. Having never visited her riding before her election, she quickly became a prominent figure in Canadian politics, serving as the party’s agriculture critic and winning re-election in 2015. Despite setbacks in 2019 and 2021, Brosseau is making a political comeback by announcing her candidacy for the NDP in the Berthier-Maskinongé riding, hoping to regain her seat amidst a challenging political landscape for her party.
