Former Police Officer Elenore Sturko joins us in studio to talk about her recent election to the Provincial Legislature and becoming the new representative for the residents of Surrey South. Elenore has a very diverse background and appears to be ready for her new position as MLA. Her experiences in policing make her a valuable asset to the official opposition which continues to hold the government accountable on important issues such as public safety.
