Jodie Byram

Working for Agassiz

Born and raised in rural Manitoba, I'm proud to call Agassiz home. As your MLA, I'm dedicated to rural safety, better health care, and making life more affordable for Agassiz families.

Why Jodie Byram?

Born and raised in rural Manitoba, Jodie Byram is deeply rooted in Agassiz — and committed to fighting for the families who call it home.

In 2023, Jodie was honoured to be elected as the MLA for Agassiz. That role is both a privilege and a responsibility she carries with great respect and dedication every single day.

Growing up on a farm and later raising her own family instilled in her the values of hard work, resilience, and commitment. Her experience as a Constituency Assistant, followed by her role as MLA, has given her a deep understanding of provincial government and the issues that matter most to Manitobans.

Jodie brings not only political knowledge and experience, but also a genuine understanding of the unique needs of rural communities. She knows the people, the landscape, and the challenges many face. She is a strong advocate for rural safety — raising awareness and pushing for meaningful action on rural crime — and equally committed to improving access to health care so families can receive timely care closer to home.

Affordability and support for families remain central to her work. She understands the pressures households are facing and is dedicated to advancing practical solutions that help make life more manageable for Manitobans.

Active throughout the constituency, Jodie regularly attends community events and engages in local and regional discussions to stay informed and connected.

Compassionate, approachable, and a strong listener — Jodie Byram is committed to being a clear and consistent voice for the people of Agassiz.

Why Edna Nabess?

Everything I am today began here in northern Manitoba.

I was born in Cormorant, raised in the traditions of Mathias Colomb Cree Nation, built a business in The Pas, and have spent my life working alongside families and communities throughout the North. The people, cultures, and communities of The Pas–Kameesak have shaped who I am. This is home.

I am running because I believe our communities deserve a strong voice someone who understands the North not because they've read about it, but because they've lived it.

Throughout my life, I have worked to create opportunities for others. Whether supporting Indigenous entrepreneurs, raising a family, opening my home to foster children, helping young people in remote communities, or serving on provincial boards, my purpose has always been the same: to leave my community stronger than I found it.

I believe The Pas–Kameesak has one of the brightest futures in Manitoba. Our region is home to hardworking people, proud Indigenous communities, abundant natural resources, thriving tourism, forestry, mining, fishing, trapping, agriculture, and small businesses that have supported northern families for generations. We have everything we need to succeed. What we need is leadership that believes in our people, works in partnership with our communities, and creates the opportunities that will keep our young people here, attract new investment, and build a stronger future for everyone.

I want to be a strong voice for every community across this riding from The Pas and Opaskwayak Cree Nation to Cormorant, Moose Lake, Pukatawagan, Grand Rapids, Easterville, and every community in between. Every community deserves to be heard. Every family deserves opportunity. Every young person deserves a reason to build their future right here in northern Manitoba.

Politics has never been my ambition. Service has. Serving as your MLA is simply another way I can continue the work I have dedicated my life to listening to people, bringing communities together, and helping build a stronger future for northern Manitoba.

If you place your trust in me, I promise to work hard every day to earn it. I will listen with respect, lead with integrity, and always put the people of The Pas–Kameesak first.

Everything I am began here in northern Manitoba. I believe in the people of northern Manitoba. I always have, and I always will.
