Holiday reception at the Legislature

Yesterday was the annual Open House at the Legislature. It was a good afternoon and lots of people came to visit. Our office was open and there were plenty of hot drinks to warm people up.

We had lots of visitors including Santa Claus and his elves (top photo), a group of recent immigrants led by Ann Tigchelaar who had come to learn about democracy and the legislature in Manitoba (middle photo), and many many others.

David Weremy (bottom photo) came to remind me it was also the International Day of Human Rights. Others came by to talk about their concerns with the plans to build a new hog plant in Transcona.
