Allison J. Bernard Jr. - Candidate for Council
First and formost,
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of Eskasoni's Band Members for their Support during my two terms in Council
from 2002 to 2006. WELA'LIOQ
Introduction:
My name is Allison Bernard Jr. and I am 42 years old. My parents are Allison and Freda Bernard from the Eskasoni First Nation.
I am the oldest of eight siblings in my family. I am married to Miranda Bernard, daughter of Leonard and Josephine Paul.
We have three children: Ashton Bernard,18, living in Shawinigan, Quebec, playing in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League.
Arden, 9, living at home and our beloved son, Addison, in heaven.
I graduated from Riverview Rural High School in 1986 with an academic high school diploma. When I graduated I received
two sport scholarships to attend UCCB or Mount Allison University. I went to the University College of Cape Breton to take
my Bachelor of Arts Degree and was there for two years. During my stay at the University I received a job as a Police Officer
and served 9 1/2 Years in policing. I was trained at the R.C.M.P Academy in Regina, Saskatchewan.
I am very greatful for the support that I have received when I was a Councilor. I believe that I have maintained a very
good relationship with our community members and have not made any bad decisions that would have affected our community's
delicate state, adversly.
