"Proven Experience - Proven Results"
Solutions for Nova Scotians

THANK YOU - I am very proud to have been re-elected MLA for Sackville - Uniacke on the November 26, 2024 Election. I will be updating this site soon, however until then the information here is still valid.
Experience Counts
As your PC Candidate, with over seven years as a Member of the Nova Scotia Legislative Assembly (MLA), former Minister of Justice and Nova Scotia Attorney General, 16 years as Councillor with the Halifax Regional Municipality and Deputy Mayor, I have the experience and knowledge of how government works at all levels.
I understand the issues both Provincially and in our communities of Sackville - Mount Uniacke and have the inter-governmental connections and background to ensure that the concerns and issues of the residents in Sackville - Uniacke are heard and resolved.
Most importantly, I have a proven track record of working hard and getting things done for the residents I repersent.
