MLA: Dawn Black - New Westminster

Lord, We are very fortunate to have a woman with the background and experience of MLA: Dawn Black serving in our legislature. We know that her many years of public service have been pleasing not only to You but to the people of Canada as a whole and to British Columbia. You say in Ecclesiastes 2:26 (NLT) that "God gives wisdom, knowledge, and joy to those who please him." so may You give these to her in abundance.  Give her renewed vigor, insight and strategies to accomplish all of those things that You have laid on her heart to implement for the citizens of this province. May her family times also be extra special times of refreshing and great joy. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.    

Dawn Black was elected as MLA for New Westminster on May 12, 2009.

Dawn serves as the Assistant Deputy Speaker.

Dawn and her family live in New Westminster. Dawn served three terms as a Member of Parliament.

The Toronto Star voted Dawn as one of the top ten MPs in Canada. The Globe and Mail featured her as one of only four Question Period standouts.

Following former New Westminster MLA Chuck Puchmayr’s announcement that he would not be seeking re-election, Dawn decided to come home and enter provincial politics.

Dawn lives with her husband Peter in New Westminster. They have three sons and seven grandchildren.
