Thank you Minister Priddy for accepting our "rendez-vous". May I ask you to introduce yourself?
Hello. I'm Penny Priddy, Minister of Health and Minister Responsible for Seniors in the Government of British Columbia, Canada. I've held the Health Minister portfolio since February, 1998, and before that served as Minister of Labour, and Minister of Women's Equality. My background is in health. I was educated as a nurse and have worked with children, families, and people with disabilities in a variety of programs over the past thirty years. I am a mother and grandmother to a delightful boy named Liam.
