Bardish Chagger PC MP (born April 6, 1980) is a Canadian politician who served as a Cabinet minister from 2015 to 2021. A member of the Liberal Party, Chagger has sat in the House of Commons as the Member of Parliament for the riding of Waterloo since the 2015 federal election.[1][2]
Chagger previously held the portfolios of Leader of the Government in the House of Commons and Minister of Small Business and Tourism.[3] Chagger was the first female Leader of the Government in the House of Commons in the history of Canada.
Despite being the "key driver" behind the government's decision in the WE Charity controversy in 2020, Chagger declined to resign after her involvement in the scandal. She was later removed from Cabinet in 2021.[4][5][6]
