Coffee In The Park with Jennifer and Cam
A Coffee with Shane Getson, MLA for Lac Ste. Anne-Parkland
Grab a coffee and join us for a fascinating conversation with Shane Getson, MLA for Lac Ste. Anne-Parkland. Shane’s journey is anything but typical, and in this episode, we trace his roots from a family farm near Wildwood—where he learned the grit of manual labor and heavy machinery—to playing high school sports in a tiny K-12 school of just 300 students.
Shane takes us behind the scenes of his career as a Civil Engineer, including the high-stakes world of fly-in diamond mines and the massive undertaking of laying fiber optics across Canada. You’ll hear the story of how Canadian diamonds were first discovered by a geologist from Kelowna, and why Alberta gophers were once sold as "exotic pets" in Japan.
Finally, Shane shares the hilarious, "engineer-approved" way he met his wife: by building a spreadsheet of exactly what he was looking for. From running a successful consulting firm to choosing a life of public service to be closer to his family, Shane’s story is a testament to hard work and local roots.
