- Linda Archer was first elected to the St. James-Assiniboia School Board in a 1994 by-election, following the death of Maureen Jack. She said that she was not political or issue-driven, and indicated that she wanted to maintain high-quality education.[3] She was re-elected in the general elections of 1995, 1998, 2002 and 2006. She became president of the Manitoba Association of School Trustees for a one-year term in 2002, and in this capacity criticized the provincial government's plans for school board amalgamation.[4] She also argued that class sizes should be overseen by school boards, rather than by the province.[5] At the end of her term in 2003, she delivered a speech arguing that Manitoba school boards were under attack from the provincial government.[6] She also helped spearhead a change to MAST's constitution, allowing presidents to serve for two-year terms.[7]
- Bruce Chegus was first elected to the St. James-Assiniboia School Board in 1989, and was re-elected in 1992, 1995, 1998, 2002 and 2006. He served as chair of the St. James-Assiniboia board after the 1995 election, and spearheaded an initiative to release reports on student academic performance and student perceptions of education to the general public.[8]

- Shane Nestruck (born September 4, 1947) is a musician and activist. He holds L.Mus. and Bachelor of Education degrees, and has played with the Montreal Sax Quartet, the Winnipeg Sax Quartet and the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra. A saxophonist and occasional clarinetist, he is a private tutor and operated an instrument repair shop during the 1970s.[13] After starting his professional career in Montreal, he moved to Winnipeg in 1978.[14] He is a Canadian federalist and a supporter of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC),[15] and has written against Quebec separatism.[16] He provided a room for Sasha Boychok in 1991, when the saxophone player was attempting to defect from the Soviet Union.[17] Nestruck and Boychouk later played together in the group Saxology Canada, which released a CD called Points in Time (1997),[18] and were among the founding members of the Winnipeg Jazz Orchestra.[19] Nestruck ran for a position on the board of the Winnipeg Musicians' Association in 2004, but was not elected.[20] He opposed the 2003 invasion of Iraq.[21] In 2005, he reviewed Maude Barlow's book Too Close for Comfort: Canada's Future Within Fortress North America for the Winnipeg Free Press newspaper.[22] Nestruck is a supporter of light rail transit for Winnipeg, and initially supported Mayor Sam Katz for his policy views on the matter.[23] By 2006, however, he was calling on Katz to resign for poor judgement on several matters.[24] Nestruck was a supporter of the New Democratic Party for most of his life, but became disillusioned with the Manitoba NDP in the 1990s and 2000s. He ran for the party's nomination in Fort Rouge as an "outsider" candidate in the buildup to the 2007 provincial election, accusing the party of betraying its social democratic ideals and of emulating the practices of federal Liberal governments.[25] He also accused Premier Gary Doer of being a "pretender" who had "hijacked the party".[26] He finished third against Jennifer Howard.[27] Nestruck later ran for the leadership of the Green Party of Manitoba in 2008, and lost to James Beddome.[28] He is an active supporter of electoral reform,[29] and has argued that Canada's traditional parties have become stuck in following outmoded models of economic growth and oil dependency.[30] Notwithstanding his progressive views on most issues, Nestruck has also supported several "law and order" initiatives, including a plan for the Winnipeg police to post the names of persons charged with drunk driving offenses online.[31] The 2009 by-election campaign was his first bid for public office; he said that he would cut his stipend, and seek to restore discipline on schoolgrounds.[32] For Earth Day 2009, CBC Manitoba named Nestruck as the "Greenest Manitoban".[33]
