A Quad County Warden has decided to throw his hat into the circus ring called Provincial Politics.

Guysborough Warden Lloyd Hines is seeking the Liberal nomination for the Guysborough-Sheet Harbour riding.

The seat is currently held by Ron Chisholm, the province's Minister of Fisheries and Aquaculture.

He says Ron is a colleague of his, but once on the campaign trail, all bets are off.

 " We've been through municipal government together. I look forward to debating the issues with Ron, I think that both he and I have a good even perspective on how things are to be done - but unfortunately only one of us can win - and it's going to be me."

Hines will seek the nomination at a meeting on March 14th at the Guysborough Legion.

There are no other declared candidates.
