Boudreau seeks Richmond Tory nomination
A former town councillor is trying to jump to provincial politics.
Trevor Boudreau has announced he’ll seek the Tory nomination in Richmond in the next provincial election.
Boudreau says he’s filed his nomination papers to represent the party whenever the next provincial vote is called.
He was twice elected to town council in Port Hawkesbury- first in 2012, then again in the last municipal elections 2016.
Boudreau moved outside town limits recently, and his fellow councillors didn’t grant him an extension to stay on until the upcoming municipal elections in October.
Alana Paon won the seat for the Tories in 2017, defeating long-time Liberal MLA Michel Samson, who had represented the riding since 1998; she was booted from the Tory caucus for what party leader Tim Houston described as “a number of issues” in June 2019.
