Cathy Scofield-Singh is back at it, this time running for MP in the federal election. Scofield-Singh is excited for this opportunity.
“It’s a new idea for me. When I start thinking about it, it allows me to speak up for people at a bigger table. I mean, this isn’t just provincially this is federal.”
Scofield-Singh is running because she wants to advocate for people.
“As a nurse-practitioner, I’m able to advocate on behalf of an individual. The reality is, there are so many issues at a community, provincial, or federal level that needs to be advocated for and I’ve always had that desire.”
She notices a difference between the provincial election where she was the underdog and finished 3rd of three people and the federal election where she enters the race with the Liberals are polling second out of 6 in the Dauphin-Swan River-Neepawa riding.
“With the provincial election, it was a very different feeling. With the limited time I had for campaigning, I was the underdog in that situation. In the federal election, I have the opportunity to earn people’s vote and there’s a good potential that I could be the next representative of the Dauphin-Swan River-Neepawa riding. I’m excited about that.”
The federal election is October 21st.
