Marwah Rizqy is a Canadian politician, who was elected to the National Assembly of Quebec in the 2018 provincial election.[1] She represents the electoral district of Saint-Laurent as a member of the Quebec Liberal Party.

Prior to her election, she was a professor of tax law at the University of Sherbrooke.

Rizqy previously ran for the Liberal Party of Canada in the 2015 Canadian federal election in the riding of Hochelaga, finishing behind New Democratic Party incumbent Marjolaine Boutin-Sweet by 500 votes.

Rizqy was defeated for the nomination by eventual winner Emmanuella Lambropoulos.
