CHRIS WARKENTIN, MP FOR GRANDE PRAIRIE, APPOINTED CHIEF OPPOSITION WHIP
In May 2025, Chris Warkentin, Member of Parliament for Grande Prairie, was appointed Chief Opposition Whip, in addition to his existing responsibilities as MP.
This key role involves working closely with the Shadow Cabinet to ensure Canadians’ concerns are heard loud and clear, and that every Conservative MP is equipped to effectively hold the Liberal government to account.
“Michelle and I are profoundly grateful for this opportunity to serve,” said Warkentin. “It is an honour to represent the residents of the Peace Country and all Canadians. I am committed to fighting for you, your family, and for the Canada we want to leave our kids and grandchildren—a Canada of hope, opportunity, safety, freedom, and prosperity.”
Warkentin added, “As Opposition Whip, my role is to keep our team united, focused, and driven to deliver results for Canadians. Now more than ever, we must offer a clear and compelling vision—one grounded in hope, opportunity, and freedom for all.
