David Alston is a well-known community leader and entrepreneur. He has worked together with innovators across party lines to implement positive change in his community.

He believes that effectively solving problems together requires values like:

• listening with interest and empathy,

• valuing other’s opinions and expertise,

• being willing to learn and collaborate,

• focusing on the priorities,

• and creating innovative solutions backed up by research and data. 

As a citizen, David has been very concerned by the current government’s lack of listening and collaboration, visionary plans, adequate resources and proactive initiatives for priorities like healthcare, education and housing, and its focus instead on divisive social issues.

David believes we are in the midst of a generational opportunity to positively transform our province. We need a bold vision and outside-the-box thinking now more than ever.

For these reasons, David has decided to put his name forward as the Liberal candidate for Saint John East.

Focused on You.

“I’m a problem solver at heart. I listen to truly get at the root of an issue.”
