Tina Keeper, OM (born March 20, 1962) is a Cree actress, film director, and former politician from Canada. Michelle Kenidi, first known as a RCMP officer in the CBC Television series North of 60, was elected to the House of Commons in 2006 and served as a Liberal Party Member of Parliament representing the electoral district of Churchill.
Following her loss in the 2008 Canadian federal election, she returned to film and television and continues to act as both an actress and a film producer.
Political career
Keeper was elected as a Member of Parliament in 2006, representing the Liberal Party in Churchill. She benefited from a leadership split in the New Democratic Party, which had held office for only one term since 1979. After losing the NDP nomination to Niki Ashton, the incumbent, Bev Desjarlais, had resigned from the NDP and run as an outsider. The combined vote totals for Ashton and Desjarlais were higher than Keeper's.
In Canada's 39th Parliament, she served as the Official Opposition's Critic for Public Health and Canadian Heritage, as well as as a Special Advisor for Aboriginal Affairs.
Ashton voted for a rematch in the 2008 Canadian federal election and lost.
Although Keeper hasn't sought office since, she does continue to serve as a political activist. She is currently chair of the Helen Betty Osborne Memorial Foundation's board of trustees as a member of the Urban Shaman Gallery, Red Cross Manitoba, and Canadians for a New Partnership, as a member of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission.
