She was a Liberal member of the Legislative Assembly of Ontario from 1987 to 1990. BackgroundLeBourdais was educated at Ryerson Polytechnical Institute, and worked as a public relations and marketing consultant in the fashion and retail sectors. She has served as president of the federal Liberal riding association in Etobicoke Centre, and of the Etobicoke Centre Women's Committee. LeBourdais was also the national director of Stay Alert ... Stay Safe, a national non-profit organization in the field of child safety.[1] PoliticsIn 1987 provincial election, she ran as the Liberal party candidate in the riding of Etobicoke West. She won the nomination on May 3 at a contentious nomination meeting. Other contenders including former MPP Leonard Braithwaite claimed that LeBourdais signed up a large block of members for which she failed to provide a list to other nominees. There was also an allegation that some of the members lived outside the riding. In addition, the three member arbritation panel appointed to review the decision resigned due to a conflict of interest.[2] In July a newly appointed arbitration panel upheld the decision saying they were "unable to prove sufficient voting irregularities to overturn the meeting".[3] In the election held in September 1987, she won the election defeating Progressive Conservative Doug Holyday by 6,090 votes.[4] She served as a backbench supporter of David Peterson's government for the next three years, and was a parliamentary assistant in 1988-89. She served as advocate from Ontario's clothing and apparel industry during her time in office. Prior to the 1990 provincial election, LeBourdais was challenged for the Liberal nomination by a representative of a local Sikh group, which claimed the Peterson government was insufficiently responsive to minority communities.[5] She won the nomination, but was defeated in the general election by Chris Stockwell of the Progressive Conservative Party.[6][7] Electoral record{{Ontario provincial election, 1987/Etobicoke West}}{{Ontario provincial election, 1990/Etobicoke West}}After politicsShe returned to the private sector after her defeat, and became president of Mentor Communications.
