List of Jewish Canadian politicians
This list comprises persons who belong to the Jewish faith who have been elected to the federal House of Commons, legislative assemblies of provinces and territories, and members appointed to the Senate.
The first Jewish Canadian politician elected was Henry Nathan Jr., elected as a Liberal MP to the House of Commons in a by-election in 1871.
There have been 37 Jewish Canadians who have served as Members of Parliament, as well as 18 who have been named Senators. After the 2015 Canadian election, the highest number of Jews were elected to Parliament in history - with 7 MPs (2.1% of the House of Commons). Elected in a 2019 by-election, Rachel Bendayan became the eighth currently-serving Jewish MP. Of the current federal Jewish politicians, 8 are Liberals (8 MPs, 0 Senators), 2 are Conservatives (0 MPs, 2 Senators), and one sits as an Independent (1 senator).
Provincially, Jews have been elected to 8 of the 13 legislatures – with only New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Saskatchewan, Northwest Territories and Nunavut never having Jewish representation. There are currently seven Jews serving in three provincial legislatures. Of those members, five are Conservative (four Progressive Conservative, one United Conservative), one is Liberal (one Quebec Liberal) and one is a New Democrat.
