Mayor

I am a teacher at Charlottetown Rural High School and have always had an interest in politics. I live on Alexander Drive with my wife Cynthia and our two sons Samuel and Simon. I decided for this term to offer for the position of Mayor of the Municipal Council, as I really enjoyed my term as Councilor. It is a great learning experience and a privilege to represent the constituents of Clyde River. I can be reached at 902.388.1513 to discuss any concerns you may have regarding our community.
