Mary Ellen also holds advanced degrees from University of Cambridge and Harvard University\, obtained following time at Carleton University and York University. \nAppointed for a second term as BC’s Representative for Children and Youth in 2011\, during her tenure Mary Ellen released nearly 100 reports and 200 recommendations to help improve the lives of BC’s most vulnerable young people. \n“There is no resource more precious in BC than its children\,” she wrote in her final report. “Few would argue that and yet children have not been the focus of government in BC for many years. This government must work on its ability to own up to its shortcomings and address them. BC’s children deserve that much.” \n“I hope\,” Mary Ellen said in an October 2016 interview with Global News\, “they will say she held people’s feet to the fire and she went to where the kids were.” \n
