He was defeated by Clarence Baker of the New Democratic Party, 3903 votes to 3601.Praznik was elected for Lac du Bonnet in the 1988 general election (defeating Baker by over 800 votes), and was soon named legislative assistant to Gary Filmon, the newly elected Premier.Praznik was re-elected in the 1990 election and was promoted to Minister of Labour, a position that he held until 1995. He held several other portfolios in the Filmon government, including Minister of Northern Affairs (1993–1997), Minister of Energy and Mines (1995–1997), Minister of Health (1997–1999), and Minister of Highways and Transportation and Government House Leader (February to October 1999).
