MarkRequinta — Candidate for Winnipeg City Councilor, Point Douglas ward, 2026
Councilor for Point Douglas
Listen. Lead. Deliver.
Accessible, accountable leadership for the neighbourhood we call home.
- Strong Community
- Brighter Tomorrows
- A Better Point Douglas
Sixteen years in Winnipeg. Five kids. One reason to run.
Mark came to Winnipeg in 2010 and built a life here. He spent seven years supervising teams at a casino, learning what accountability looks like when the public is watching.
When his wife took on a demanding career as an ER nurse, they made a decision together: he would take the greater role at home. Today he works part time in the staffing office at St. Boniface Hospital and raises five children.
He knows what it costs a family when a bus does not come, a community centre closes early, or a tax bill climbs without an explanation.
How Mark will do the job.
- Listens first
- The best ideas come from the people who already live here. Listening comes before the decision, not after it.
- Leads with integrity
- Straight answers, consistent standards, and reasoning that any resident can check for themselves.
- Puts people before politics
- Public service is not about politics. It is about whether your street, your bus stop, and your community centre actually work.
Six priorities for Point Douglas.
A Stronger Community for Families and Seniors
Safe, welcoming spaces where families gather, children play, and seniors stay connected.
Responsible Spending and Fair Property Taxes
Every tax dollar should return real value to the neighbourhood.
Reliable Water and Waste Services
Clean, dependable service at a fair and predictable price.
Better Public Transportation
Transit that actually connects residents to work, school, and healthcare.
Safe, Connected Neighbourhoods
Safety built through partnership between residents, businesses, and City Hall.
Leadership That Listens
Accessible, transparent, and committed to listening before deciding.
Campaigns are built by neighbours.
Door knocking, phone calls, translation, a few hours on a Saturday. Whatever you can give, there is a job that fits it.
