Zenzi Wolker
Zenzi (Kreszenztia Wolker) was born two days after Christmas in 1994 to a single mom in a multilingual Quebec family. Raised on the mountain of the mohawk territory of Kanesatake immersed in first nations culture. With a collection of half and step siblings she grew up openly queer enjoying the support of their mother and family. Being bullied made the struggle through school harder in addition to learning disorders in an already broken and stretched education system. A loyal agriculturalist they also learned about and worked with children specializing in kids with physical and mental limitations and disabilities occasionally needing to support herself with part-time customer service and factory work. When the family fell into the need Zenzi shifted her career to at home senior palliative care prioritizing a multi-generational home life and helping others stay in their homes. They now focus on being a constantly evolving and learning parent, a reliable member of their community, bettering themself, and working in at home palliative care, and agriculture. Zenzi hopes to bring understanding and representation to many underrepresented ways of life, communities, cultures, and identities while defending rights to good education, health care, housing, nutrition, religion / spiritual expression, and kindness.

Emilia Farcutiu
A Strong Voice for the Community: From Healthcare and Journalism to Civic Leadership Who is Emilia Farcutiu? Emilia Farcutiu is a professional deeply dedicated to people and her community. Her life journey is defined by courage, adaptability, and a constant drive to bring about positive societal change. Settled in Quebec, where she successfully rebuilt her career and family life, Emilia combines a strong European academic foundation with extensive on-the-ground experience within the Quebec education and healthcare systems. 📚 Education and Early Professional Success Born and educated in Romania, Emilia graduated from the University of Bucharest (Faculty of Geography), specializing in Environmental Research — a rigorous scientific foundation that gives her a clear, analytical view of today's ecological challenges. Her passion for people and communication led her into the arts and media. Graduating with a degree in Film Directing from Media University of Bucharest, she worked for several years as an investigative journalist and reporter. The hallmark of her journalism career was spending 18 months with the Romanian National Television (TVR), where she championed public integrity, active listening, and administrative accountability. 🍁 Integration in Quebec: Family, Education, and Healthcare Upon immigrating to Canada, Emilia chose to prioritize her family while embracing a successful professional reinvention, dedicating her energy to serving the community: Education: She pursued specialized studies in education in Quebec and worked as an educator, guiding the early development of the next generation. Healthcare: She later transitioned into healthcare, completing her credentials in Physiotherapy (Kinésithérapie). Today, Emilia proudly practices as a physiotherapist, helping fellow citizens regain their health, mobility, and well-being daily. This role provides her with unfiltered, firsthand insight into the real-world dynamics and challenges of our healthcare system. 🗳️ Political Engagement and Vision for the Future Emilia is not a career politician; she is a grassroots community leader. Last year, she stepped into local politics, running in the municipal elections in Brossard (District P-V). Despite a swift one-month campaign, her authenticity and practical solutions strongly resonated with voters, earning her 400 votes (a remarkable 20% of the vote) and demonstrating a powerful ability to connect with and mobilize the community. Alongside her medical practice and political dedication, Emilia is a forward-thinking entrepreneur. She is currently establishing an eco-responsible integrative wellness initiative: a weekend detox and wellness mini-center in La Patrie, a project she will continue to expand over the next two years. "I am running because I believe in an inclusive Quebec where individual rights are protected, and our communities receive the support they truly deserve. My background in the environment, media, education, and healthcare arms me with the tools to be a rational, empathetic, and firm voice in the National Assembly. I want to put my life experience to work for every citizen." – Emilia Farcutiu

Pontiac
Will Twolan
Will Twolan is the Canadian Party of Quebec candidate for Pontiac. Having worked on provincial, federal, and municipal election campaigns, Will has built experience in political communications, governance, and public service. He previously represented the Canadian Party of Quebec in Pontiac during the 2022 Quebec election. Will’s roots run deep across Pontiac and the Outaouais, from Allumette Island to Aylmer. His family has lived, farmed, and served in municipal roles throughout the region for generations. Will grew up on his family’s cattle farm in Pontiac and has fond memories of attending the Shawville Fair, spending summers at The Fort (Fort William), and enjoying days at Parc des Cèdres in Aylmer. With both anglophone and francophone family roots, Will has a personal connection to the region’s rich history and diverse communities. Will has served in ex officio roles on academic boards at D’Arcy McGee High School and Cégep Heritage College, gaining experience in institutional governance and community representation. He holds a DEC in Social Science from Cégep Heritage College and a Joint Honours Bachelor in Communication and Political Science from the University of Ottawa. He is currently pursuing a Master of Communication at the University of Ottawa. Will is an unapologetic federalist who believes in a strong and united Canada. He firmly opposes separatism, nationalism, and regionalism, which he believes divide citizens, encourage identity politics, and isolate Quebec from the rest of the country. He believes Quebec has already lost too many years to governments that have placed separatist and nationalist agendas ahead of economic stability, investment, national unity, and the rights of citizens. Will also believes that no elected representative should take their riding or its voters for granted. Pontiac deserves an MNA who will defend the rights of its citizens, challenge laws that weaken Charter protections, and place the interests of the riding ahead of party convenience. He believes governments must uphold the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, not treat Charter rights as optional. Will strongly opposes the routine use of the notwithstanding clause to shield governments from accountability and override the fundamental rights of citizens.
