1921 CANADIAN WOMEN EXERCISE FIRST FEDERAL VOTE

Agnes McPhail (1890-1954) is elected to the House of Commons for the United Farmers of Ontario in the first election in which all Canadian women exercise their right to vote (wives of soldiers could vote during World War I); a country schoolteacher, she is Canada's first female MP.

It's not even 100 years ago!!!!!!!
