Dear Lord. Thank you for
Hugh Nerlien. We pray that you would give him a keen sense of heart. Sharpen
his awareness of the people in his constituency that need extra help. Bless he
and his wife Giselle with a wonderful spring season. Amen.
Hugh Nerlien was elected MLA for Kelvington-Wadena Constituency on April 4, 2016.
Hugh was born in Kelvington and grew up on the family farm and in small business in the Greenwater Lake area of Saskatchewan. His education includes a wide range of disciplines including business administration, Canadian securities, certified financial planning, and lifelong learning in oil and gas, insurance, banking, human resource, and a variety of skills development.
After working in Northern Manitoba and Alberta for over 30 years, he saw opportunities in Saskatchewan. He and his wife bought a business in Porcupine Plain to be closer to family and friends and to be involved in a small community’s activities. Hugh recently sold his business in Porcupine Plain and turned his attention to representing the constituents of Kelvington-Wadena.
Hugh has volunteered extensively throughout his life, including as a former President of the Canadian Crime Stoppers Association, Porcupine Plain Economic Development Committee, and board member for Porcupine Credit Union Limited.
Hugh has been appointed to the caucus Legislation and Regulation committee, which works closely with the Red Tape Review sub-committee. He is also a member of the Standing Committee on Crown and Central Agencies.
Hugh and his wife Giselle have two sons and one daughter.
