Description
The Legislative Assembly of British Columbia
5th Session
41st Parliament
A
House,
leader
third
party,
thank
you,
honourable
speaker.
Trisha
dattenay
handles
much
of
our
case
work
in
the
couching
constituency
office,
which
has
opened
over
700
cases
in
the
last
three
years,
and
thanks
to
trisha,
the
vast
majority
of
them
have
reached
a
positive
resolution.
Trisha
describes
beautifully
what
it's
like
to
work
in
the
constituency
office
quote:
helping
people
actually
get
what
they're
seeking
is
a
joy.
We
get
all
types
of
people
in
the
office.
A
I've
held
the
door
for
persons
with
disabilities,
held
babies
from
mothers,
while
they
tell
me
what
they
need
and
held
my
tongue.
When
someone
with
a
mental
health
issue
starts
yelling,
there
are
never
two
days
the
same
people
will
come
in
every
week
with
a
question
I
have
never
heard
before.
I
love
learning
new
things,
and
this
job
has
given
me
a
chance
to
keep
growing
b
mackenzie
handles
all
files
related
to
children
and
families
and
her
compassion,
determination
and
dedication
to
helping
families.
Heal
is
a
wonder
to
behold.
A
Bee
teaches
all
of
us,
as
she
brings
her
whole
self
to
everything.
She
does
kayla
brent,
who
reached
out
to
me
when
she
was
a
grade.
12
student
at
francis
kelsey
kelsey
secondary
triages,
the
hundreds
and
sometimes
thousands
of
emails
our
office
receives
daily.
She
is
wise
way
beyond
her
years,
unflappable,
incredibly
hardworking
and
an
inspiration
to
all
of
us
who
watch
her
navigate
her
early
20s
with
grace
humor
and
a
maturity
that
many
of
us
still
aspire
to.
A
Maeve
manages
the
office,
including
the
wonderful
volunteers,
erin
mariana,
shelby
and
pat
maeve
also
attends
the
community
meetings
when
I'm
down
here
in
victoria
and
keeps
lines
of
communication
and
connection
open
between
all
other
levels
of
government
and
the
incredible
array
of
community
groups
in
cowatun
maeve
is
the
spark
of
joy
and
humor
that
we
all
need
and
the
fierce
mama
bear.
Who
will
do
everything
she
can
to
help
and
protect
the
incredible
team
that
have
been
helping
and
serving
our
constituents
to
tricia,
b,
kayla,
maeve,
aaron,
marianna,
shelby
and
pat?
Thank
