Dan Joyce is the new Liberal candidate for the riding of Saint John-Portland.
Joyce was nominated by acclamation before a packed house last night at the Thistle Curling Club.
He says there are a few local issues he wants to tackle, but says that people are actually quite pleased with what's going on in the riding.
He says the construction is clear evidence that positive things are happening.
Joyce says he decided to run after he retired when he was approached by minister Ed Doherty.
Joyce is best known as the owner of Joyce's Ultramar on the corner of Somerset and Wellesley Avenue, which he operated for 32 years.
