A familiar face is running in the 2019 federal election.
Laverne Lewycky has been named the NDP candidate for the Dauphin- Swan River- Neepawa riding, where he once served as the MP from 1980 to 1984.
While he’s not new to political campaigns, he is excited about the current race.
“I’m one of those people that has run multiple times, in many elections,” said Lewycky. “Each campaign is a little bit different, but I feel good about this particular one. I think that I bring a little bit of expertise and experience that, probably, other candidates can’t bring because I’ve been a Member of Parliament for this area before, and I’ve taught Canadian society and things like that.”
Lewycky adds that he is excited to work with youth on important issues like climate change and hopes to bring the results that youth would like to see.
The federal election is set for Monday, October 21st.
