New Lunenburg MLA Readies For First Legislature Sitting

The Nova Scotia Legislature will open today for a special fall sitting. Its the first session for Premier Stephen McNeil and his other recently-elected Liberal MLA's. This will also be the first time Lunenburg Liberal MLA Suzanne Lohnes-Croft has sat in the house. She says it will be a learning experience and she's thrilled she's going to be there.



The legislature will begin sitting this afternoon with the throne speech read by Lieutenant-Governor J.J. Grant. The session, expected to last only a week or so, is mainly for house keeping and the introduction of a few bills.
