Agatha BourassaCandidate for Sackville-Cobequid
As a graduate of Université Sainte-Anne and a dedicated French teacher since 2001 with the Conseil scolaire acadien provincial, Agatha has spent her life advocating for education and health care. Originally from Calgary, she lived in the Annapolis Valley for most of her career, teaching at École Rose-des-Vents. In 2020, Agatha moved to Halifax to support her son, then 12, in his acting journey at Neptune Theatre. Originally intending a temporary stay, the pandemic led her to settle in the city. She now works as a physical education teacher at École du Sommet.
Agatha’s drive for better health care is deeply personal. With a close family member living with cystic fibrosis, she became a dedicated advocate for the approval of both Kalydeco and Trikafta, two breakthrough medications for people living with cystic fibrosis.
Agatha brings a record of integrity, dedication, and advocacy. While her career in education has always been about making a difference for students and colleagues, her impact extends far beyond the classroom. She is an advocate for everyone in her community. Known for her strong communication skills and dedication to listening, she is a voice for those who need it most. She believes in tackling tough challenges head-on.
This election is about addressing the wide range of needs facing Nova Scotians. Agatha is committed to tackling issues across health care, community development, and economic growth, recognizing the importance of a comprehensive approach for the province’s future.
