Thank-you Lord for MLA Blair Yakimoski, I pray that he would seek You as he represents the needs of those in the riding of Transcona.  I pray Lord that you would give him the knowledge and wisdom in all he needs to represent the people in Transcona. That Your Will be done and that You would be glorified in and through him.

Blair Yakimoski was elected to his first term as the MLA for Transcona on April 19, 2016. In addition to his duties as MLA, he serves as the Deputy Whip for the Manitoba PC Caucus. Born and raised in Transcona, Blair’s family life has always been deeply intertwined with daily life in Transcona. His father ran the produce department in the old Shop Easy in downtown Transcona near the library while his mother worked at the dental office around the corner. Blair’s youth is filled with fond memories of playing hockey in the old barn at the East End Community Club, attending mass at St. Michael’s, and proudly graduating from Murdoch Mackay Collegiate. Always proud of his Ukrainian Heritage, Blair met his wife Amy when they danced and travelled the world with the internationally renowned Rusalka Dance Ensemble. Blair and Amy have been married 25 years and have raised 3 children, all of whom are pursuing their dreams at university.
