Richard Genaille

"A student at Parkland College, currently upgrading to make my Grade 12 from the Yorkton Regional High School more up to date. June 8, 2004 is the day I graduated from high school. Since then I took part in a class at Partners In Employment, I worked for Prairie Harvest Employment Program walking the streets picking up garbage and working on the Recycling bus picking up the Blue Bins, I worked at Painted Hand casino as a Dishwasher and a Custodian, I help set up tables and chairs for the Yorkton First Steps Graduations and family bar-B-Q's.

I am 27 years old, I was born in Preeceville and raised in Yorkton my whole life. I am a loving and caring person, I care about the people and I want to make Yorkton a better place. 10 years ago I said I was going to run for mayor and now I am actually experiencing it. To actually win though would be the coolest thing to ever happen to me. I like to make music from the hip hop genre, I been doing that since I was 15 and one day I would love to hear one of my songs on the radio or even a video on Much Music.
