Senator Stan Kutcher

Welcome

As an Independent Senator representing Nova Scotia, I work with my Senate colleagues to provide sober second thought on legislation and to advance initiatives that help address the needs of more vulnerable Canadians and improve the lives of all Canadians. It is my intention to discharge these responsibilities to the best of my ability and to base all my work in the best available scientific evidence. While my professional pre-Senate background is useful in health and mental health related work, I enjoy the insights of my colleagues, staff and experts in all endeavored fields to inform, constructively criticize and improve what I do.

Please read on to learn more about the Senate and my work in it.
