About You
What is the biggest issue facing your community, and how would you address it?
The Thompson riding has two major issues: jobs and crime. I am proud of our record on address both of those issues and even more excited about current platform. Our Manitoba works plan will see 40,000 new jobs created with a specific focus on creating jobs in Northern communities and our crime reduction strategy will see additional officers stationed in Thompson and strategic resources placed here to reduce crime.
Why did you decide to run for office?
I felt the NDP had done a poor job managing the province and that Brian Pallister and our PC team had the right plan.
Manitoba is marking its 150th anniversary next year. Suggest one way we can make it a memorable occasion.
I think would be an amazing opportunity to highlight the natural beauty of my riding by showcasing places like Churchill, Paint Lake Provincial Park and Pisew Falls Provincial Park. I cannot recommend them enough for people who want to see the pure beauty that Manitoba has.
Tell us something about yourself that voters might find surprising.
Before entering politics, I spent nearly 20 years in the mining industry. I am one of few MLA’s who have gone to work 3600 feet below the surface.
