Political career
She was first elected in the 1974 federal election at the South Western Nova electoral district for the Liberal party. After her first term in Parliament, she was defeated by Charles E. Haliburton of the Progressive Conservative Party in the 1979 federal election in what was now called the South West Nova riding.
Following the short-lived Progressive Conservative minority government of Joe Clark, she was re-elected at South West Nova in the 1980 federal election.[1] But she lost the seat again in the 1984 federal election to Gerald Comeau of the Progressive Conservative Party.[1]
Her last term in Parliament began with her second comeback in the 1988 federal election.[1] She did not seek another term in Parliament after this and left federal politics as of the 1993 federal election.[1]
