Hi there, I’m Darren!

Hi there, I’m Darren, the Member of Parliament for Dartmouth—Cole Harbour.
Throughout my site you can find information on investments I’ve delivered to support our community, and updates on our Liberal Government’s support and programs for individuals, families, non-profit organizations, and businesses.
Don’t forget to check out my blog to find out what’s happening in and around our community.
Do you need help with a federal department? We have a great team in both of our offices and they’re capable and ready to help. It’s what we are here for. Feel free to call us at 902-462-6453 and leave a detailed message.
Don’t forget to “like” my page on Facebook to keep up to date on support, news, events, and issues relating to Dartmouth—Cole Harbour (and maybe a few pics of Tobey too).
See you soon,
