It’s great to be here in Dartmouth – Cole Harbour this week.
I’m sitting on two committees- Environment and Sustainable Development & National Defence. I’m told there could be a bit of travel involved with either- but I will always do my best to spend as much time here in NS as possible.

When the house isn’t sitting, I want to be back home working here. From my days as a councilor I’m used to interacting with my constituents as much as possible. It’s a bit different flying back and forth but I am up for the challenge.

I am really impressed by the number of ministerial visits we’ve had to NS in such a short time. The Hon. Navdeep Bains, Minister of ACOA was here this week (sorry for the snowstorm, Minister!) announcing funding for a local Dartmouth business. It’s nice to have this level of respect for Atlantic Canada again. ( http://news.gc.ca/web/article-en.do?nid=1032089&tp=1 )
