Born to Stan and Evelyn Connors, I grew up on Bell Island before moving to Kelligrews in Conception Bay South in 1970. Myself, My wife, Michelle, and our two children, Jenna and Bradley, still live in CBS today. I graduated from Memorial University of Newfoundland with a Bachelor of Commerce, a Diploma in Business Administration, and a Certificate in Business Administration. Over my career, I've h
eld senior management positions, including 14 years as Executive Director of the Newfoundland and Labrador Federation of Agriculture. There, I advocated for farmers, developed educational tools, and secured transformative funding and legislative changes for the agricultural industry. Most recently, I’ve worked as Executive Assistant to our current MP, Ken McDonald. In this role, I've watched him stand-up for the people of Avalon time and again. He’s shown me what it means to be the voice of the people in Ottawa, and not the other way around. I’m committed to continuing this legacy. I’ve also been honored to serve two terms as a councilor here in Conception Bay South, contributing to significant improvements in our community like improving access to state of the art recreation facilities in the new CBS stadium and the recently announced indoor recreation facility at the Gateway. I’m deeply committed to volunteerism, having coached generations of kids in minor hockey and served as chair of the Sammy’s Climb Higher Foundation and the Conception Bay South ATV Committee and served on many other committees and boards related to economic development, agriculture and sport. With the experience, passion, and dedication to our community, I’m ready to represent Avalon in Ottawa. I ask for your trust to continue the progress we’ve made and to work toward a brighter future for all.
