Burian, Emma-Jane2024-03-172024-03-172024https://hdl.handle.net/1828/16175Between 2019 and 2021, three high profile women of colour MPs, Jody Wilson-Raybuld, Celina Caesar-Chavannes and Mumilaaq Qaqqaq left the House of Commons citing experiences of discrimination and toxicity. However, the current reality of discrimination within the House of Commons is still rarely discussed within Canadian Political Science literature. This study takes a critical intervention in this trend, by mapping the institutional discrimination faced by women of colour Members of Parliament (MPs) within Canada’s House of Commons from 2015-present. My approach focuses on listening and learning from lived experiences as authoritative knowledge. Thus, my methodology takes the form of qualitative data collection through interviews and discourse analysis. Ultimately, this research finds that the House of Commons is an exclusionary space aimed at keeping the voices of women of colour out. Further, despite their rhetoric, those in power are still unwilling to address this reality.enCanadian politicsgenderraceequityinclusionPoster
