Kelvin Goertzen (born June 12, 1969) is a Canadian politician who served as the 23rd premier of Manitoba from September to November, 2021.

Goertzen was born on June 12, 1969 in Winnipeg, Manitoba but was raised in Steinbach, Manitoba.

1987

He attended public school in Steinbach and graduated high school from the Steinbach Regional Secondary School in June 1987.

Goertzen obtained a Bachelor of Arts, majoring in Economics, a Bachelor of Commerce and a Bachelor of Law each from the University of Manitoba.

While attending Robson Hall law school at the University of Manitoba, Goertzen was awarded more than a dozen academic prizes and was the school's top student during his second year of law studies.

Goertzen served for two years as the Vice-President of the Steinbach Arts Council and served as Vice-President of the Southeast Helping Hands Food Bank in Steinbach for seven years.

He has been involved as a participant and fundraiser in a number of community related causes including the Mennonite Heritage Village Museum and the Steinbach Association for Community Living.

He is a member of the South East Rotary Club.

Goertzen became the youngest MLA ever elected from Steinbach since its creation in 1990, as well as the first Manitoba Legislative Intern to be elected to the Manitoba Legislature.

1995

In 1995, Goertzen was hired as an intern at the Manitoba Legislature serving with the Progressive Conservative Caucus.

Following the internship, he served in the Manitoba Department of Culture, Heritage and Citizenship and subsequently worked as an Executive Assistant to MLAs Jim Penner and Albert Driedger.

2000

Following the 2000 federal election, Goertzen also worked as an advisor to Provencher Member of Parliament Vic Toews and was a key local organizer for Toews in the 2000, 2004 and 2006 federal elections.

2003

A member of the Progressive Conservative Party of Manitoba, he is a member of the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba for Steinbach, first elected in the 2003 provincial election, and was re-elected in 2007, 2011, 2016, 2019 and most recently in 2023.

Goertzen served as interim leader of the PC party, from September 1, 2021 to October 30, 2021.

He was sworn as premier on September 1, 2021.

Goertzen was succeeded as premier on the afternoon of November 2, 2021, by Heather Stefanson who won the PC leadership election on October 30.

Goertzen, upon his swearing-in, selected Rochelle Squires as his deputy premier.

Prior to seeking elected office himself, Goertzen also served as the President of the Steinbach Progressive Conservative Association, as a Regional Director on the Board of the Manitoba Progressive Conservative Party and as a member of the Management Committee of the Manitoba Progressive Conservative Party.

One week prior to the calling of the 2003 provincial election, Steinbach MLA Jim Penner announced he had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and would not be seeking re-election.

Some critics suggested Goertzen's service as local association President gave him an advantage in the short nomination time frame.

In 2005-2006, Goertzen held a series of informational meetings across Manitoba about Crystal Meth and lobbied for new legislation to allow parents of drug addicted teenagers to place their children in drug treatment.

Goertzen was a strong supporter of Opposition Leader Stuart Murray and refused to participate in internal Caucus dissent that ultimately led to the end of Murray's leadership in November 2005.

Goertzen was among the first MLAs to endorse the provincial PC leadership campaign of Hugh McFadyen who eventually won the leadership.

McFadyen reappointed Goertzen as Justice Critic after his leadership election and also appointed him the PC House Leader.
