Introduction of Guests (30 November 2021)

From Hansard (30 November 2021)

 

Martensville Councillor Jamie Martens

Mr. Jenson: — Thank you, Mr. Speaker. To you and through you this afternoon, it’s my pleasure to introduce Jamie Martens. Jamie, this is her first time in her legislature today. And she’s a city councillor for the city of Martensville, first elected in 2012. Unique little story, quickly: Jamie’s grandfather donated the land to build a school in Martensville where city hall now stands; therefore the city is named after her family.

Jamie has spent the past two years on the Federation of Canadian Municipalities and is currently the Vice-Chair of the rural caucus. She’s also on different committees, including public safety and policing, international affairs, environmental sustainability, and the governance representative for the Canadian Women in Local Leadership.

She spent the morning touring the legislature with me, meeting some of my colleagues, having a couple of meetings with ministers. We look forward to doing some more of that this afternoon. And I would like all my colleagues to welcome Jamie to her Saskatchewan legislature.
