Coquitlam-Port Coquitlam MP Ron McKinnon is inviting Tri-City teens and young adults to be part of the Prime Minister's Youth Council.
The new council will respond to PM Justin Trudeau — in his role as Minister of Youth — to offer non-partisan advice on such national topics as employment, access to education, community involvement and climate change.
Up to 30 young leaders — between the ages of 16 and 24 — will be named to the council, from across Canada, for up to two years and will be required to meet in person and online several times a year. They will also liaise with Trudeau up to four times a year.
To apply, visit canada.ca/youth. For more information, call McKinnon's constituency office at 604-927-1080.
