The MLA for Borderland says he's enjoyed being able to once again get out and see people, especially popping into local coffee shops and visiting with constituents. Josh Guenter says he intends to do more of that in 2022.

"I really want to visit as many of our businesses as possible and do some of those in-person meetings," he explained, noting he's also been talking with his office staff about hosting a coffee tour in the constituency. "I just want to connect in-person again and get a sense of where everybody's at and reconnect."

On the government side of things, Guenter says Manitoba's Progressive Conservatives are feeling rejuvenated, energized and united.

"Certainly, there's definitely and listening ear in the Premier's Office, and I think there's some exciting things we're talking about as well for the future of Manitoba. So, on that front I would say 'stay tuned', but there's a lot of good work that's going that maybe isn't in the headlines all the time."
