Biographie

Kathy Majowski is running as your NDP candidate in Lac Du Bonnet.

Kathy is a Registered Nurse, a mother, and a strong advocate for older adults. While working on the frontlines during the pandemic she saw first-hand the effects of the PC cuts and is ready to work to make life better for the people of the Lac du Bonnet Constituency. Like all Manitobans, Kathy was appalled at the treatment and experiences of older adults during the pandemic, in the community and in long term care settings. As the Board Chair of the Canadian Network for the Prevention of Elder Abuse (CNPEA), she works as a powerful voice for seniors and families hurt by the PCs’ cuts and privatization of services. She now wants to be Lac Du Bonnet’s voice at the table.

As part of the Manitoba NDP team, Kathy will use her years of experience to fix health care and be your voice at the table.
