Private Members Statement honouring another Dawson Trail Hero - Donald Hrynyk and Eastman Employment Services.

It was my pleasure in November to present Ste. Anne resident Donald Hrynyk to the Manitoba Legislative Assembly as a Dawson Trail hero.

I had the opportunity to meet Donald recently through Take Your MLA To Work Day. Donald has worked at Normandeau Sheet Metal in Ste. Anne for more than three years and in that period has missed only one day of work.

Donald’s position at Normandeau is arranged through Eastman Employment Services (EES), a not-for-profit organization that connects employers to job-seekers with diverse abilities. EES’s efforts in Dawson Trail have created opportunities for persons like Donald to work independently and successfully, to the benefit of employee and employer.

Way to go, Donald! And thank you to EES for the positive work you do.
