Peggy Butts
Mary Alice "Peggy" Butts (August 15, 1924 – March 6, 2004) served as a Canadian Senator from September 23, 1997 to August 15, 1999.
==Biography==
Born in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia, on the Feast of the Assumption, Peggy was a Roman Catholic nun in the Sisters of Notre Dame order. She obtained several degrees, as a B.A. degree in Philosophy, a B.A. degree in Education, a M.A. degree in Political Philosophy from the University of Ottawa, and a Ph.D. degree in Political Philosophy from the University of Toronto. Through her life she served as a schoolteacher and high school principal. Later she was a professor at St. Francis Xavier University and the University College of Cape Breton (now Cape Breton University).
At the age of 73, Peggy was appointed to the Canadian Senate. However, qualification laws for senators caused problems with her appointment. All Canadian senators are required to possess land worth at least $4,000 in the province for which he or she is appointed, as well as own real and personal property worth at least $4,000, above his or her debts and liabilities. Having taken a vow of poverty upon becoming a nun, Butts was able to officially be sworn in only after her order formally transferred a small parcel of land to her name.〔 Butts resigned at the age of 75 as required by law,〔 and for her two years of service donated her entire salary to charity.〔
Peggy Butts died at age 79 in 2004.〔
