About Ryan Frick

---

 Born to two self-employed parents, Ryan learned the value of hard work from an early age and isn’t afraid to persevere in the face of challenges. A proud fourth-generation Transcona resident, he comes from the Blostein family—a name known for its strong work ethic, resilience, and generous spirit. Ryan carries that legacy forward with a deep commitment to his community and a drive to make a meaningful impact. Continuing community service that his family done for decades.

Ryan is deeply committed to ensuring that public education provides equitable opportunities for every student, regardless of income, race, gender, or sexuality. As a 2021 graduate, he has a unique perspective on the gaps that still exist in the education system, especially when compared to the experiences of those who graduated years or even decades earlier. Ryan will tirelessly advocate for the resources and support that every student deserves to thrive, and he won’t stop until every child has the tools they need to succeed. 

Ryan’s primary goal, as stated earlier, is to ensure every student has the tools they need to succeed—not only academically but in everyday life. This includes expanding vocational programs to more schools, introducing water safety education to teach kids how to stay safe around water and respond in emergencies, and providing timely access to mental health resources. Ryan is particularly passionate about the importance of mental health support for students.  This could include access to counseling services, peer support groups, and wellness initiatives that help students manage stress, anxiety, and other mental health challenges. Ryan is committed to ensuring that these resources are readily available and accessible to all students, so they feel supported and empowered to face life's challenges both in and outside the classroom. Ryan firmly believes in an open-door policy where parents, students, and staff can approach him with any concern, confident in his unbiased perspective and commitment to resolving issues as he works on their behalf.
