Later in the day on Wednesday, Ms. Rice posted information to her Facebook page on how constituents of the North Coast could participate with written submissions to the Standing committee.
Skeena MLA Ellis Ross also had a brief opportunity for comment in the Legislature this week, celebrating the birth of a grandchild and taking note of the sacrifices that all MLA's make when it comes to time spent with family as part of their work.
His comments came at the very start of the Monday afternoon session of the week's legislature schedule.
