Kings—Hants
Born in Windsor, Nova Scotia, I have enjoyed a rich career as a professional Landscape Architect in Ontario, followed by 25 years as a professor and, at times, Director of Dalhousie University’s School of Resource and Environmental Studies. Recently retired, I remain engaged as Professor Emerita in the Faculties of Science and Graduate Studies.
Throughout my career, I have been engaged in numerous professional, community, and volunteer organizations. For 15 years I chaired Nova Scotia’s Land Legacy Trust, which has provided game-changing matching funding support to land trusts to protect private lands of ecological significance. I have twice served on Recovery Planning Teams for species at risk in Nova Scotia. I have helped organize international conferences and provided guidance to Parks Canada and Environment and Climate Change Canada, most recently for Canada’s National Ecological Corridors Program.
My interests have always focused on the inter-relationships between humans and our environment. As humans we have a responsibility to think and act in ways that recognize that we are all related. The biological diversity that makes up ecological systems comprises our life support system. My work has explored and advocated for ways to live in coexistence and reciprocity, for the benefit of all, both people and nature.
I have always enjoyed outdoor activities, especially gardening, backcountry camping, canoeing, hiking, and sea kayaking. I have done a lot of long-distance running, swimming and biking, including the Boston Marathon, and competing for Team Canada in international triathlon and duathlon competitions, earning an award of excellence and a bronze medal for Canada in 2013.
Now retired, I live again in my hometown of Windsor, NS. Today, we all need to stand together in solidarity, as Canadians, to stand up for our country and our environment. Now, more than ever in our lifetime, we need to work together for a liveable future for our children and all of life on earth, in all its diversity.
I’m here to put our country and my electoral district constituents first. We must share the burdens equitably and ensure those most vulnerable are attended to. As we build alliances and unified responses to today’s existential threats, Elizabeth May’s message resonates with me.
“Democracy and respect for human rights, climate action and collective work for a better world must not be abandoned. Canada can emerge stronger, more resilient and more self-sufficient. We do this together.”
I look forward to being your voice for positive change.
