“Well, I was re-elected,” says your favourite MLA about her biggest accomplishment this year. And we’re excited about that because we like the stuff this MacDonald stands for---she founded a great program G.E.M., which helps young inner-city women excel in school. She’s working closely with the Imagine Bloomfield group to ensure the building, vital to so many cultural and social groups, “does not become an ugly high-rise apartment building,” and MacDonald is the only elected MLA who has introduced legislation addressing the injustices of Africville.
