David Hendsbee (born April 9, 1960) is a Canadian politician. He represented the electoral district of Preston in the Nova Scotia House of Assembly from 1999 to 2003. He was a member of the Progressive Conservative Party of Nova Scotia.[1] Today he sits on the Halifax Regional Council.

Early life and education

Born in April 1960 at Oshawa, Ontario, Hendsbee graduated from Saint Mary's University with a Bachelor of Commerce degree.[2]

Political career

From 1989 to 1991, Hendsbee was the executive assistant to provincial cabinet minister Tom McInnis.[2]

Prior to the 1993 election, Hendsbee wanted to seek the Progressive Conservative nomination in the new Preston riding, but premier Donald Cameron refused to sign his nomination papers,[3] prompting him to run as an Independent candidate.[4] On election night, Hendsbee finished second, losing to Liberal Wayne Adams by 491 votes.[5][6] Hendsbee turned to municipal politics and was elected a councillor in Halifax County, Nova Scotia.[7] In December 1995, Hendsbee was elected a councillor for the newly established Halifax Regional Municipality.[8]

Hendsbee ran for the Progressive Conservatives in the 1999 election,[9] and defeated New Democrat incumbent Yvonne Atwell by 304 votes in the Preston riding.[10][11] He served as a backbench member of John Hamm's government, and was defeated by Liberal Keith Colwell when he ran for re-election in 2003.[12][13] Following his defeat, Hendsbee announced he would run in a municipal byelection for his old Halifax Regional Council seat.[14] In November 2003, he won the byelection,[15][16] and was re-elected in the 2004,[17] 2008,[18] 2012,[19] 2016,[20] and 2020 municipal elections.[21]

Personal life

Hendsbee resides in Seaforth, Nova Scotia with his wife, Susan Goodyer.[22]
