PC Party Nova Scotia

Dear Progressive Conservative:

Dear Progressive Conservative:

This past weekend, a special general meeting of our party was held at the Old Orchard Inn in Greenwich, Kings County.   I would like to thank Charlie Hendsbee, President of the Kings South PC Association – as well as other Kings County PCs – for the hospitality they extended to their fellow Tories.

 Dear Progressive Conservative:

President's Report

May 10, 2011

Dear Progressive Conservative:

Here's a report to highlight a few items that have taken place since my previous report from last week.

Last night, the Provincial Executive met by teleconference to dispense with some business.

Mr. Speaker, members of the Legislature, special guests, ladies and gentlemen, this is my first Address in Reply to a Speech from the Throne, so I would like to begin for a moment by again thanking the constituents of Cumberland South who have sent me here. I know, like many members know - perhaps all members know - that no matter what we do in our political life, the greatest honour that we will ever have is to have been selected by the voters to represent them here in this Chamber.

Dear Progressive Conservative:
 
I know a lot of the political talk in recent days has been around the federal election called for May 2.
 
Before I get into that, I wanted to update you on a busy period for our provincial party since the highly successful provincial annual general meeting in early February.
 
Our leader Jamie Baillie continues to travel around the province - meeting not only with party members, but also Nova Scotians who are looking for an alternative government to Darrell Dexter's NDP.
 

PC Leader Jamie Baillie addresses Progressive Conservative annual general meeting in Halifax

HALIFAX, NS - In his first address to the Progressive Conservative Party since becoming leader in October, Jamie Baillie pledged that if the NDP government doesn’t fix the MLA pension system, he will.

“The Speaker launched an MLA pension review that has MLAs themselves setting the terms of reference and recommending names for the panel,” said Baillie.

Baillie names chair for next election campaign

HALIFAX – Tara Erskine, CHRP, a Partner at well-known Atlantic Canada law firm McInnes Cooper, will be the campaign chair for the Progressive Conservative Party for the next election, PC Leader Jamie Baillie announced today.

Dear Progressive Conservative:

In my 20 plus years as a member of this party, I have often heard people describe the PC Party as a family.  This past week, I experienced the highs and lows of being part of that family.

Part of the lows included saying farewell to several longtime Progressive Conservatives.
