West Vancouver-Capilano MLA Lynne Block has been named shadow minister of housing.
BC Conservative Leader John Rustad announced his shadow cabinet picks on Wednesday, following BC NDP Leader David Eby’s cabinet minister appointments on Monday.
In the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia, Block will be a critic of Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows MLA Lisa Beare, who is the province’s new minister of education and child care.
Block will bring years of experience to her position in the shadow cabinet. Before winning her riding by a wide margin in the October election, Block had been a trustee for West Vancouver Schools for six years.
In order to take on her new role as MLA, she had to give up her position with the school district.
