From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Manitoba Liberal Party elected three candidates to the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba in the 1995 provincial election. Some of the party's candidates have their own biography pages; information about others may be found here.

[edit] Linda Cantiveros (Point Douglas)

Cantiveros is a prominent member of the Filipino community in Winnipeg. She has been an international division director of Agrif Global Training, Inc., has worked as editor of the Filipino Journal, and has served on the board of directors for the Philippine-Canadian Centre of Manitoba. She was a founding member of the Filipino-Canadian Business Council, and remains an active member of that organization. Cantiveros received 1,132 votes (23.05%) in 1995, finishing second against New Democratic Party candidate George Hickes.

In 2002, she endorsed Mike Pagtakhan's successful bid to represent Point Douglas on the Winnipeg City Council.

[edit] Bob Turner (Portage la Prairie)

A 2003 report from the Manitoba Association of Teachers of English lists Bob Turner as having thirteen years experience as a S2-S4 English teacher, and working at Arthur Meighen High School in Portage la Prairie.[1] It is likely that this is the same person.

Turner received 2,117 votes (27.34%) in the 1995 election, finishing second against Progressive Conservative incumbent Brian Pallister.

[edit] Harry Wood (Rupertsland)

Wood emphasized the need to develop a regional economy in Churchill. He received 1,018 votes (23.00%), finishing second against New Democratic Party candidate Eric Robinson.

The Support Working Group of "Diabetes: A Manitoba Strategy" lists a Harry Wood of St. Theresa Point as a contributor. This is likely the same person.
