Шаблон:Infobox officeholder Gerald Earle Sheehy (June 24, 1924 – June 1, 2009) was a Canadian politician. He represented the electoral district of Annapolis East in the Nova Scotia House of Assembly from 1970 to 1988. He was a member of the Progressive Conservative Party of Nova Scotia.[1]
Early life and education
Born in 1924 at Noel, Hants County, Nova Scotia, Sheehy graduated from the University of Toronto and was a veterinarian by career.[2]
Political career
He entered politics in 1965 as a town councillor and deputy mayor in Middleton, Nova Scotia.[3] Sheehy moved to provincial politics in 1970, when he was elected MLA for Annapolis East.[4] He was re-elected in the 1974 election.[5] Sheehy was re-elected by almost 1400 votes in the 1978 election,[6] that resulted in a majority government for the Progressive Conservatives led by John Buchanan.[7]
On October 5, 1978, Buchanan appointed Sheehy to the Executive Council of Nova Scotia as Minister of Agriculture and Marketing and Minister of Health.[2][8] In June 1979, Buchanan shuffled his cabinet, with Sheehy moving to Registrar General and remaining as Minister of Health. Sheehy was re-elected in the 1981[9] and 1984 elections.[10] Sheehy continued to serve in cabinet until November 1985, when he asked to be shuffled out for family reasons.[11] He also indicated he would not run in the next election.[12][13]
Later life and death
Following his political career, he returned to Middleton, where he died on June 1, 2009.[3][14]
