Women in the 24th Canadian Parliament

See also: Women in Canadian politics

The number of women sitting in the House of Commons increased to five during the 24th Canadian Parliament; the number of women senators increased to seven. 21 women ran for seats in the Canadian House of Commons in the 1958 federal election; the two women incumbents were reelected. Three more women were elected in by-elections held following the general election: Jean Casselman Wadds in September 1958,[1] Judy LaMarsh in October 1960,[2] and Margaret Mary Macdonald in May 1961.[3]

Two additional women: Olive Lillian Irvine[4] and Josie Alice Quart[5] were named to the Canadian senate in January 1960. Cairine Wilson died in March 1962, which brought the number of women senators to six.
