Gold Winner Leonard Preyra
Silver Winner Darrell Dexter
Bronze Winner Bill Estabrooks
Coast readers votes picked Leonard Preyra as Best MLA, a distinction not shared by voters in the actual provincial election, who turfed him out. When we called to tell him the news he laughed heartily. “It’s an important constituency for me!” he says of readers. “I’m happy about that. It’s a tough constituency, and a good one. You offer, and people either accept you or not, and you move on.” Preyra says he hasn’t decided what to do with himself yet, although he’s thinking about getting involved in an activist organization, coaching youth soccer and possibly getting back into teaching.
