Political career

Churchill successfully ran for the nomination of the Nova Scotia Liberal Party in the riding of Yarmouth in May 2010.[1] He won the by-election held on June 22, 2010 which was contested between six mostly high profile candidates. Churchill garnered just over half the popular vote, defeating a former MLA John Deveau, a former 20-year mayor of the Town of Yarmouth Charles Crosby and two minor party leaders.[2]

Churchill was re-elected in the 2013 general election.[3][4] On October 22, 2013, Churchill was appointed to the Executive Council of Nova Scotia as Minister of Natural Resources.[5]

On July 24, 2015, premier Stephen McNeil shuffled his cabinet, moving Churchill to Minister of Municipal Affairs and Minister of Communications Nova Scotia.[6][7][8]
