Rhonda Gordon is our Liberal candidate in Wellington Constituency

Rhonda Gordon is a remarkable woman - who has been involved in a remarkable range of activities. She has worked with CBC Radio, with the National Film Board of Canada, with the Fifth Estate on CBC-TV, with the Manitoba Human Rights Commission, as the Communications Coordinator with Winnipeg Harvest, as a Community Development Facilitator with the Mother of Red Nations and for a year as my Executive Assistant in the Legislature. It is a range of experience that gives her the background and the ability to be an outstanding Member of the Legislature. Now, all we need to do is make sure she gets elected.

Rhonda has a rare talent for listening to people's problems and for finding helpful solutions. I have watched her in action and I have seen her do well.

Rhonda is known for standing up for human rights. On one occasion, when she and her daughter Angela were harrassed - she found the courage and the way to stand up and make a difference. Her experience was later documented in the National Film Board documentary production For Angela. In follow up, Rhonda herself facilitated racism awareness workshops in many of Manitoba's schools.

Rhonda's ability to care for and help others is rooted in her own experience, growing up in poverty. Today with her partner Scott, her daughter Angela and her granddaughter Alexa, Rhonda continues to make a difference in people's lives.
