BIOGRAPHY

I am first and foremost the proud husband of Anne Bernard-Bourgeois and father of Alexandre and Jérémie.

We are a loving family, the most important ‘thing’ in my life. My community is a close second.

Anne and I are a couple since 1989. She is a Director of schools at Anglophone East School District.

I am a researcher. My specialty is public policy analysis. I achieved my PhD in that subject.

My research focuses on municipalities, health authorities, school boards and regional service commissions.

In my work, I help government and non-government organisations plan and evaluate their actions and achieve results by adopting and implementing governance policies and strategic and operational plans.

I have published one book and 26 scientific articles, as well as over 60 applied research reports.

I have volunteered on ten community organisations and sat on the board of directors of 7 of these organisations.

I have also been elected to one of our local school boards and twice to Moncton City Council.
