Info | Manuel is the owner-operator of two small businesses in Medicine Hat, one is a shoe repair and sales operation and the other is a janitorial service.
He immigrated to Canada from El Salvador in 1987, living in Calgary for a year and then moving to Medicine Hat in August of 1988. He worked as a shoemaker, eventually purchasing the business from his previous employer.
Manuel is married and has two children.
In El Salvador Manuel was very active in politics. As teenager in 1974 he became angry about the injustices that he witnessed in his neighbourhood and this motivated him to become an active participant in political activities designed to promote social justice. This passion for justice has remained an important part of Manuel's life and has led him to take on the role of the NDP candidate in Cypress-Medicine Hat.
