Careers and Grant Park

This afternoon I was at Grant Park High School to talk about politics as a career. Guess what - it was clear that students were much more interested in firefighter Gord Amirault who did a great job of presenting the highs and the lows and the "hot" and the "cold" of being a firefighter. Well done Gord! One of the students was so enthusiastic, she tried on the firefighter suit (photos). But it was kind of heavy.

Jennifer Perron also did an excellent job of talking about her work at the Society for Manitobans with Disabilities.

In the bottom photo, I am shown with Shauna Holm who is helping students learn about different career options.
