Roy L Hales/Cortes Currents - t has been three weeks since Anna Kindy was sworn in as the Conservative Party MLA for North Island riding.
We actually had a long phone conversation shortly after her election, but this has been a very busy time for Ms Kindy and so we agreed to do the interview on December 3, yesterday.
As I didn’t get an opportunity to interview her during the election, it's probably best to start at the beginning.
“As an MLA, I represent everyone in this constituency. It doesn't matter if you voted for me or not, I represent you and I'll do it to the best of my capacity. I have to look at what the issues are in my riding and how to address them,” she said.
Cortes Currents: Why did you run for office? What was the inspiration?
Anna Kindy: “It wasn't in the cards a few years back, like two or three years ago. I wasn't even thinking of running for the office, but I was seeing so many things going sideways. I've always been politically aware, so I decided to stop complaining and do something about it. So I threw my hat in.”
