Yesterday, Premier Tony Wakeham announced the appointment of a Parliamentary Assistant to the Premier and Parliamentary Secretaries to Ministers, and the MHA for St. George’s -Humber, Hal Cormier, is on the list. MHA Cormier is appointed Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Forestry, Agriculture and Lands. Cormier was elected in the riding on October 14th. The premier’s news release contained background information on each appointee and says, “ With a strong background in public service, he has actively fostered community connections and advocated for the needs of local residents. Serving two terms as a councillor in the Town of Pasadena gave him valuable experience in addressing local challenges and opportunities, while ensuring the voices of his constituents were heard and represented effectively.

Appointees assist the Premier and Ministers on various issues or files. While they do not receive pay for their work in these roles, their background and experiences position them to provide support.
