Name: Amber
Lynne Griffiths, Region One Youth Rep
I Have:
A healthy family, Excellent opportunities, Drive and
Dreams
Biggest Challenge: To be an individual in a people reliant community
Few people have any
idea: How much life
really has to offer, Travel, do the things you enjoy,
and don’t let anyone slow you down.
My Motivation: My Daughter, she is my driving force, I want to make
MNO a strong resource for her and for all the other
future Canadians. I want her to stand tall and
say I am a Proud Canadian Métis! Everything I
do is for her.
I've been to: Florida to see Mickey and the gang, British Columbia
for family ski trips, Toronto to pick up my sister and
for Métis Youth Conferences (22hr drive from
home), Dawson City, Yukon at 16yrs old Gourmet mushroom
picking. All over B.C. including Queen Charlotte
Islands, and Alberta at 17-19yrs old Gourmet mushroom
picking and St. Jo, Kansas City and Springfield Missouri
visiting with Family.
Best Moment:
The blessing of becoming a mother, and spending time
in the mountains.
Thanks to: My parents, my family and for everybody who has believed
in me.
I want to: Help other Métis youth realize their potential
in their community, region, Country and to themselves.
I believe: That we all have a voice
I am Metis
I am Proud!
