Evie is a fierce lady.

She knew she was moving to the Yukon since grade three.

Some years later, with her mother wagging her finger behind her and her baby at her side, Evie drove from Fredericton to Faro and landed herself a job.

Evie shares her thoughts on the mines, black and white photography and working with children, among other tales.

We got the absolute pleasure to talk to Evie while at her home at the Copper Ridge Continuing Care Facility last week.
