I would like to thank the constituents of Kings-Hants for once again placing their trust in me by re-electing me to serve as their Member of Parliament.

I visited all parts of our community to talk with neighbours who were engaged in the important debates that this recent election involved.  As I traveled around the riding some themes were raised over and over again: taxpayers deserve value for the tax dollars they contribute to government, that our Federal government should support local efforts towards economic growth, and that as a community, through our government, we must care for each other and those that are most vulnerable.

It is these values that I will bring with me to Ottawa. 

It has been an honour to serve as the Member of Parliament for Kings-Hants since 1997.  Looking forward, I will continue to support and represent our views in the House of Commons, ensuring that the government continues to work for us and that we have the support that we need to achieve our local aspirations.

If I can ever be of assistance, please do not hesitate to contact one of my offices.
