Selkirk, MB – James Bezan, Member of Parliament for Selkirk – Interlake – Eastman, released the following statement:
“I was honoured to be sworn-in for the eighth time as the Member of Parliament for Selkirk-Interlake-Eastman.
“This role is not one I take for granted. With the trust of our constituents, I humbly return to Parliament to continue standing up for, and serving, the great people of our riding.
“I was also asked by Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre to continue to serve as Shadow Minister for National Defence.
“It is a privilege to fight for those brave Canadians who proudly don the uniform to fight for all of us. The service and sacrifice of our troops, as well as their families, is a continuous inspiration. Our Conservative team will always put the safety, defence, and security of Canada first.
“Two of my Manitoba colleagues were also appointed to the new Conservative Shadow Cabinet. I want to congratulate Raquel Dancho, Shadow Minister for Industry, and Dan Mazier, Shadow Minister for Health on their new roles.
“Our entire Conservative Shadow Cabinet is ready to push for the government to boost Canadians’ buying power through lower taxes and less inflation, unleash resources to bring home paycheques and production, secure our streets by locking up criminals, get immigration under control and unite our people under our proud flag.
“Let’s get to work.”
