- Albina Guarnieri, PC, MP is an Italian-Canadian politician. A member of Paul Martin's Liberal government, she was Canada's 24th Minister of Veterans Affairs. Guarnieri was first elected as Member of Parliament for the electoral district of Mississauga East in 1988 and has been re-elected in each subsequent election. A longtime Martin loyalist, she was a relatively obscure backbencher during the Chrétien era. Martin named her Associate Minister of National Defence and Minister of State for Civil Preparedness in his first cabinet. She moved to Veterans Affairs on July 20 2004. Ms. Guarnieri’s previous parliamentary roles have included serving as Chair of the Standing Committee on Human Resources Development and the Status of Persons with Disabilities, Chair of the Standing Committee on Government Operations, and Co-Chair of the Standing Committee on Official languages. She has served as Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Canadian Heritage and has been a member of the Standing Committee on Finance. In Parliament, through private member's bills and committee work, Ms. Guarnieri has promoted initiatives to retrain older workers, establish personal training accounts for lifelong learning, combat identity fraud by reforming the Social Insurance Numbering system, impose consecutive sentencing for multiple murderers, toughen laws against child pornography, and lower middle-income tax rates. Guarnieri was initially an opponent of same-sex marriage. However, due to her appointment to Cabinet she was obliged to vote in favour of the same-sex marriage legislation. Fluent in both official languages, Ms. Guarnieri was educated at McGill University, where she graduated with a Master's degree in English. She and her husband live in Mississauga.
- L'honorable Albina Guarnieri, est une femme politique canadienne; elle est actuellement députée à la Chambre des communes du Canada, représentant la circonscription ontarienne de Mississauga-Est—Cooksville depuis 1988 sous la bannière du Parti libéral du Canada. Habile dans les deux langues officielles, Guarnieri fait ses études à l'Université McGill. Elle et son mari habitent à Mississauga. D'abord élue en 1988 dans la circonscription de Mississauga-Est (aujourd'hui Mississauga-Est—Cooksville), elle est depuis longtemps une loyaliste de Paul Martin, ce qui lui a valu d'être reléguée à l'arrière-banc durant le règne de Jean Chrétien. Lorsque Martin vient au pouvoir, il la nomme ministre associée de la Défense nationale et ministre d'État de la Protection civile dans son premier conseil des ministres. Elle est replacée au ministère des Anciens combattants le 20 juillet 2004. Guarnieri s'opposait initialement au projet de loi sur le mariage homosexuel. Toutefois, à cause de sa nomination au cabinet, elle fut obligée de changer sa position sur la question, et a voté en faveur du projet de loi.
