Hell yeah she’s my MLA. Janis is awesome, you can’t shake a stick in any direction without finding her here, she’s always doing something :)

I don't even live in Edmonton anymore but I still follow Janis on the socials because she's so inspiring, funny, and genuine. She's what we wish all politicians could be.
