NDP's Fisheries Minister Will Run In Queens-Shelburne

NDP MLA Sterling Belliveau has announced he will seek the nomination in the newly formed riding of Queens-Shelburne. Belliveau was first elected to represent Shelburne in 2006 and was re-elected in 2009. He currently serves as Minister of Environment and Minister of Fisheries and Aquaculture. The Shelburne riding was eliminated when the province's electoral boundaries were redrawn last fall. Current NDP MLA for Queens Vicki Conrad announced she would not seek the nomination on April 26th.
