I find happiness comes from numerous sources in my life. Most often, the happy moments I cherish most are quiet moments with my wife and family back home in Nova Scotia.

I was a crown attorney in my home town in Nova Scotia, and I learned that victims of crime needed better laws to better protect them. I saw politics as a means to improve this protection for them.

My gut tells me and continues to tell me that the Conservative party is on a road back to government.

You can waste a whole lifetime Trying to be What you think is expected of you But youll never be free

If the braine sowes not corne, it plants thistles.

The Pythagoreans degrade impious men into brutes and, if one is to believe Empedocles, even into plants.

You look back and you remember the good, the bad and the ugly

There is a lot of hard work that needs to be done

I am the skeptic of skeptics.
