Who was the first Canadian woman to practice medicine in Canada?

  1. Agnes Macphail

  2. Queen Victoria

  3. Dr. Emily Stowe

  4. Marie Curie

The correct answer is: Dr. Emily Stowe

Dr. Emily Stowe was the first Canadian woman to practice medicine in Canada. While Agnes Macphail was the first woman elected to the Canadian House of Commons, she was not a practicing physician. Queen Victoria, though a prominent figure in Canadian history, was not a medical professional. Marie Curie was a renowned scientist, but she was not Canadian and did not practice medicine in Canada. Therefore, the only correct option is Dr. Emily Stowe.
