Shameless

Marilyn Churley is a former Toronto City Councillor and former Member of Provincial Parliament. She has served as the Deputy Leader of the Ontario New Democratic Party and was the Ontario Legislature's first female Deputy Speaker. She has been referred to as the mother of adoption disclosure reform in Ontario.

"Never did a Bill signed into law hold such emotion for so many! That was the adoption law that finally made its way through the Ontario legislature. Marilyn may have been on the other side of the House, but she worked with me to open adoption records, all partisanship aside. The chronicling of her life through Shameless is inspiring. It's clear the new law was the moment for Marilyn to exhale, and for the adoption community to cheer." - Sandra Pupatello, former Minister of Community and Social Services
