I started volunteering for Parliament Hill early in January. I volunteered for Libby Davis, the National Critic for Healthcare, Deputy Leader of the NDP and the MP for Vancouver East. It’s a pretty fun job, I get to walk through the front doors of Parliament every week without going through security like a peasant (kidding, kidding). Her office is actually right down the hall from Stephane Dion’s and Olivia Chow’s! It’s really fun volunteering on the Hill, I love walking up the steps and thinking in my head “I am a part of the political process.” Even if it is just a desk job where I enter stuff into the database. I also read some letters that make me very upset (funds getting cut, though I do get to sit in Libby Davis’ seat!) And of course, I’ve gotten a visit from my page friend Andres, and been able to sit in the members gallery!
Access to Parliament Hill: I am the 1%.
