He was a two term town councilor in Bridgewater. Now, he’s the Progressive Conservative candidate in the riding of Lunenburg-West. David Mitchell says he took the challenge in hopes of making a difference. He says he’d like to help the provincial party, if elected to power, jump-start the area’s economy, creating jobs so South Shore residents don’t have to seek employment elsewhere.
Mitchell says while campaigning door to door, he’s been taken aback by stories he’s heard from voters about long waits for hospital ER’s and surgeries. He says that situation is disgraceful and must be changed.
Mitchell’s fellow candidates in Lunenburg-West are Mark Furey of the Liberals and incumbent NDP MLA Gary Ramey.
