Preparation Checklist:

  1. Photo ID
  2. Claim Form and personal narrative (if you’ve started it)
  3. Face covering

Please note that health cards are NOT acceptable forms of ID for privacy reasons. Membership cards issued by an organization, or cards issued by a city, municipality or region are also not acceptable forms of ID, as they are not issued by a state, provincial, territorial or federal government.

Chriselle D'Souza

A lover of continuous learning, I spent most of my childhood adapting to life in new cities. I'm on a journey to discover my purpose and self-identity and have an eager appreciation of different cultures and a palate that's willing to try any and all food.

Jill McLean

I am of mixed European settler and Inuit ancestry, and live and work in Winnipeg. I love spending time outside, even in winter. My kids are 8 and 10 years old, and they love spending time inside on screens playing video games or talking to friends. Luckily I can still talk them into joining me on a hike, skate or swim from time to time.

Stephanie Lasica

Whether I am volunteering, spending time with my family or self-reflecting, I am passionate about building trustworthy and impactful relationships that can benefit as many folks as possible. Kindness, respect and courage are essential to all that we do.

Karine Martel

I am a Métis woman from the Red River in Manitoba. I am fortunate to live on my Métis homelands within Treaty 1 Territory. I love to fish, hunt, and visit with family.
