Jackie Armstrong-Homeniuk was first elected as the Member of the Legislative Assembly for Fort Saskatchewan-Vegreville on April 16, 2019. As a small business owner, she was concerned with the direction the province was heading in, and wanted to make a difference, which is what inspired her to run.
A long-term resident in the riding, Ms. Armstrong-Homeniuk and her husband have raised their 2 children in the community and are proud to call East-Central Alberta home.
Ms. Armstrong-Homeniuk wasted no time in getting to work in sponsoring a private member’s bill called the Protection of Students with Life-Threatening Allergies Act. Her bill was passed unanimously in the assembly.
She served on the Advisory Council on Alberta-Ukraine Relations and several regional caucus, standing committees and working groups. Her extensive business background, along with her grasp of the Ukrainian language make her an ideal member of the council.
On October 24, 2022, Ms. Armstrong-Homeniuk was appointed Parliamentary Secretary for Ukrainian Refugee Settlement.
When Ms. Armstrong-Homeniuk has some free time, she enjoys spending it in the outdoors and with her family.
