Glen is 39 years old, and is married with children. His family is the focus of his life, and is the reason he is seeking a seat in the Legislature. Glen’s interest in politics began in 1987 while working on Bev Harrison’s campaign. He credits Bev for shaping his belief that politics can only best serve people when it is driven by passion, honesty, and integrity.

Glen graduated from the New Brunswick Community College in 2001 with a diploma in Computer Programming and Networking. He currently works as a Business Service Technician for Bell Aliant.

Glen’s wife, Mary, is a high school teacher. The challenges she faces daily in the classroom, as well as the work he does in the community with children, convinced him that the needs of the youth in New Brunswick are not being met. They are not being given the tools they need to succeed in the future.

Glen has been serving his community since the mid- 80’s through his work with young people in various sport activities. He is a fully certified martial arts instructor and continues to run a club where children learn how to be positive members of their community. He has coached little league baseball and soccer. His commitment to working with youth has blossomed into a desire to serve in a more diverse role.

Glen looks forward to serving the people of Saint John Fundy, and will work to restore the faith of the constituents by putting their needs first – for a change.

Political newcomer Glen Savoie wasted no time calling the political troops to action after winning the Progressive Conservative nomination for Saint John-Fundy in a contested candidate nomination race in the riding on Saturday.

Standing at the podium at Loch Lomond School before a cheering crowd of roughly 350, the 39-year-old Bell Aliant technician urged members of the PC party to get involved in the political work required during the campaign leading up to the Sept. 27 provincial election.

“Any of you that are able to help out in this riding through any active involvement that you can do will be certainly appreciated,” he told those inside the jammed school gymnasium.

“There are no small jobs – we need every one of you.”

Savoie’s wife Mary and the couple’s two children, aged eight and six, stood alongside him near the podium as he spoke passionately about the race ahead.

“It’s about getting the people talking about what they need and then helping government shape the policies to reflect the needs of the people,” he said, later in an interview.
