"Daniel Allain is one of those rare leaders with an engaging personality who genuinely enjoys being with people—and who knows how to get things done. Coaches from his younger years have told me those same qualities stood out early, recognized by teammates of all ages in the locker room.

I saw Daniel’s positive attitude and leadership firsthand on many occasions, including when he went beyond his responsibilities as Minister to help find a solution to an infrastructure issue in my community. That experience highlighted his commitment to people and his ability to deliver real results.

Daniel brings a unique combination of experience—in New Brunswick politics as a municipal Councillor, Deputy Minister, CEO, and Minister—along with strong private‑sector insight. He has the skills and the perspective needed to lead New Brunswick forward.

It has been a long time since we have had a candidate who is both widely known and experienced across all levels of government in New Brunswick. Daniel is a New Brunswicker through and through. He knows our province well and is connected from one corner to the other.

For Progressive Conservatives, this means we have a leader who can bring people together and position our party to win a strong majority of ridings in 2028.

Daniel Allain is my choice as the next leader of the PCNB—a Premier in waiting, ready to go to work for New Brunswick on Day 1.”
