He's already the deputy mayor of Bordertown but he's setting his sights on provincial politics.
30 year old John Ames of St. Stephen is the new Liberal candidate for Charlotte-Campobello after a weekend nomination meeting.
He says Bordertown is suffering from a decline in economic growth and stagnant population growth and the people are also concerned about employment insurance.
He says on the border they have a lot of people spending money on the other side which he says has it goods points and its bad points.
Ames doesn't think he'd be sacrificing one role for the other adding he just wants to spread his wings and represent everyone.
The next provincial election is less than a year away on September 22nd 2014.
