He defeated NDP candidate John Dowling by 1,085 votes.[2] He was re-elected in 1971 and 1975.[3][4] In the 1977 he was defeated by NDP challenger Brian Charlton by 308 votes.[5]

In October 1975, he was appointed as Minister of Correctional Services.[6] In February 1977 he was appointed as Minister of Government Services but served only four months when he was defeated by Charlton in June, 1977.[7]
