Judy Darcy, B.C. NDP, in her own words: “As your MLA, and for my entire life, I’ve poured my heart and soul into making life better for children, families and seniors.”

 

BIGGEST SUCCESS IN LIFE?

I’m lucky to have a few: successful campaigning to protect Canada’s water, achieving breakthroughs on child and seniors care, spearheading the rent bank, and working collaboratively for a new NWSS.

BIGGEST FAILURE OR REGRET IN LIFE?

I regret not having learned more about my father’s Jewish heritage – which he kept a secret to protect his children because he lost family members in the Holocaust. 

WHY I WOULD MAKE A GREAT MLA.

I’ve worked hard on the issues that matter most in our community. I am kind of unstoppable! In a John Horgan government, I’ll be a strong voice for New Westminster.

FAVOURITE BOOK OR MOVIE?

Favourite book: A Fine Balance by Rohinton Mistry. It’s an incredibly powerful story that speaks to me about our natural human tendency to care and to love, even in very difficult circumstances.
