In Office: First Elected 2020
While this is Gil’s first term on Town Council he is no stranger to community involvement and leadership. Gil has served on numerous boards and committees and continues to represent Yarmouth as a director of regional and provincial organizations.
Following a career in the RCMP, Gil was engaged as the General Manager of the Mariners Centre for 10 years. His commitment to the community has been recognized at the provincial, national and international levels. His knowledge of municipal politics has certainly been enhanced by the fact that his spouse served on Town Council for 21 consecutive years.
