Minimally referenced biography of a person whose strongest claim of notability is having been the first woman to serve on the municipal council of her own small town. As always, municipal councillors are not automatically presumed notable just because they existed, and being the first woman in her own town (but not the first woman in either her province or her country) is not an automatic notability boost over all of her other colleagues either -- but this is referenced to just two pieces of local coverage in her own hometown newspaper (a depth and range of coverage which every single municipal councillor in the history of municipal politics could always show) and a user-generated family genealogy (which is not support for notability at all). So the sourcing here is not strong enough to make her special, and nothing claimed in the article body is "inherently" notable enough to exempt the sources from having to make her special.

- Delete. I see nothing in the article or the references which clearly indicate notability. But remember, if she was significant at the Provincial level, the sources would likely be in French. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 17:28, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
