He represented the electoral districts of Halifax Centre and Halifax Citadel[1] in the Nova Scotia House of Assembly from 1960 to 1970 as a member of the Progressive Conservatives.[2]

Born in 1923 at Halifax, Nova Scotia, Smith was educated at the University of King's College and Dalhousie University.[2] He served with the 18th Armoured Car Regiment from 1944-1945.[3] He married Helen Elizabeth Guildford in 1949.[2] A business executive by career, Smith was president of J.E. Morse and Co. Ltd.[2]

Smith entered provincial politics in the 1960 election, defeating Liberal incumbent Gordon S. Cowan by 270 votes in the Halifax Centre riding.[4] In December 1961, Smith was appointed to the Executive Council of Nova Scotia as Minister of Mines.[2] He was re-elected in 1963, defeating Cowan by 1603 votes.[5] In the 1967 election, Smith was re-elected in the newly established Halifax Citadel riding.[6] Smith resigned from cabinet in February 1969,[7] and was defeated by Liberal Ron Wallace when he ran for re-election in 1970.[8] In January 1980, Smith was appointed Agent General for the Province of Nova Scotia in London.[2] Smith died at Halifax on February 16, 1998.[9]
