Some politician, country is even unspecified, and only a secretary of finance. Do we really want all those in WP? Radiant! 10:40, Feb 15, 2005 (UTC)
- Canadian politician, elected three times. Represents tens of thousands of people. Definately significant. I've added slightly to the article and say keep. - TB 12:17, 2005 Feb 15 (UTC)
- Improve Seems to be some Canadian politician, not major, but certainly not insignificant. David.Monniaux 12:32, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)

- Keep Canadian MP - article looks decent now. / u p p l a n d 20:33, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. Members of national legislatures are probably notable. This one is also a Parliamentary Secretary and consequently a member of the Privy Council. --TenOfAllTrades | Talk 21:25, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, even though I had no clue who he was prior to reading this. ;) National officials are certainly notable and worthy of an encyclopedia article. – Beginning 02:15, Feb 16, 2005 (UTC)

- Censoring people who disagree with you goes against the very idea of Wikipedia. Note that I didn't even vote to delete him, I merely put the matter up for discussion. Please be civil. Radiant! 12:21, Feb 21, 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. All Canadian MPs are notable. --YUL89YYZ 22:15, Feb 20, 2005 (UTC)
