Rachel Punzalan
Working for Kirkfield Park
As a lawyer, entrepreneur, and mother of four, I understand the priorities of Kirkfield Park families. I'm running to bring practical leadership, strong community values, and real results for the people I represent.
Why Rachel Punzalan?
I am running for Kirkfield Park because I believe government works best when elected representatives bring real-world experience, sound judgment, and a genuine understanding of the people they serve.
As a lawyer, small business owner, and mother of four, I understand the challenges facing Manitoba families. Every day, I work with people who are purchasing homes, building businesses, planning for retirement, caring for aging parents, and trying to provide opportunities for their children. Those experiences have given me a firsthand understanding of the issues that matter most to residents.
For more than a decade, I have built a law practice that serves individuals, families, and small business owners across Manitoba. Through that work, I have learned the importance of listening carefully, solving problems, and advocating effectively for others.
Beyond my professional life, I have remained actively involved in community organizations, charitable initiatives, youth programs, and public education. Whether through free legal seminars, volunteer work, community events, or mentoring young people, I have always believed that strong communities are built by people who are willing to contribute and lead.
Kirkfield Park deserves a representative who is accessible, engaged, and prepared to work hard on behalf of residents. I am committed to bringing practical leadership, professional experience, and a strong work ethic to ensure our communities remain safe, prosperous, and well-positioned for the future.
A lawyer, business owner, and mother of four Rachel Punzalan is ready to bring practical leadership and real-world experience to Kirkfield Park.

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.
