Kings North is a place of fertile land, awesome tides, magnificent scenery, beautiful rivers, and a sheltering mountain that supports a benign, protective climate. It boasts quality health care and excellent primary and post-secondary educational services, nurtures robust businesses and benefits from an inspired cultural community. With a Mi’kmaq history stretching back thousands of years, Kings North has also watched over the years of Acadian settlement, the turmoil of the expulsion and witnessed the arrival of the New England Planters. Now, in the twenty-first century, our riding embraces an increasingly diverse population of citizens from every part of the world.

Kings North also faces challenges. Families need quality jobs that can support their needs. We’re still debating how to preserve farm land while pursuing sustainable economic and residential development. Too many of us are poor and pushed to the sidelines of life. We need our youth to invest their energy and creativity here at home and our agricultural industry needs more value-added products and better markets.

We are facing these challenges head on. Every day I meet with concerned, highly motivated people who are building productive organizations and strong, supportive communities in every part of our riding. These communities, the natural resources we’ve inherited, our proud history and our understanding that we must work together are the cornerstones of a successful future. As your MLA, I’m proud to be working with you to build that future and I welcome your comments, ideas and suggestions.
