It gives me great pleasure to welcome Helen Chinnery and her son Stephen Warner to Queen’s Park this morning.

Having had the opportunity to work with Stephen, it’s also bittersweet that after working with the member from Etobicoke–Lakeshore, the Ministry of the Solicitor General, the Premier, and finally, at health, Stephen is departing Queen’s Park to study law.

Stephen has always approached his work here with commitment, enthusiasm, a great sense of humour and, most importantly, a passion for public service. I am grateful for his friendship, and I will miss him deeply.
