Ruth Ellen Brosseau (born April 26, 1984) is a Canadian politician who represented the riding of Berthier—Maskinongé in the House of Commons from the 2011 election until her defeat in 2019.
She is a member of the New Democratic Party (NDP). In Brosseau's first election campaign, she gained national attention for her surprising rise from a "paper candidate" to a viable contestant, and gained the nickname "Vegas Girl" for a mid-election vacation to Las Vegas.
She won reelection in the 2015 election with a larger vote share despite her party falling from second to third place nationally.
Her parliamentary roles included House Leader of the NDP, critic for Agriculture and Agri-Food, and deputy NDP caucus chair.
