Dave Carroll is ready to bring strong leadership and real solutions to Ottawa as the Conservative candidate for Sackville-Bedford-Preston. A longtime advocate, musician, and author, Dave has built a career on giving people a voice and holding powerful institutions accountable—skills he will now put to work for his community.

After earning a degree in political science from Carleton University, Dave moved to Nova Scotia in 1993, where he and his wife Jill have raised their family in Waverley for over 20 years. His academic foundation in political theory and public policy, combined with his decades of experience as a storyteller and advocate, gives him the ability to cut through the noise and fight for the people he represents. He understands the issues that matter to families, workers, and small business owners—and he knows how to make their voices heard.

Dave first made international headlines with his viral video “United Breaks Guitars,” which forced a major corporation to change its practices and became a case study in how one person can drive real change. His book, United Breaks Guitars: The Power of One Voice in the Age of Social Media, further established him as an expert in advocacy and accountability.

A dedicated community leader, Dave has served as a volunteer firefighter, is currently the Vice President of the Kidney Foundation of Canada (Atlantic), and has used his talents to support countless local causes over the years. He also coaches youth basketball with the Fall River Rebels, helping to develop young leaders on and off the court.

Now, Dave is running to bring that same passion and determination to federal politics. His priorities include:

✅ Fighting for Lower Taxes and Smarter Spending – Ensuring families keep more of what they earn.
✅ Advocating for Local Jobs and Small Businesses – Making it easier to start and grow a business.
✅ Protecting Families and Strengthening Communities – Stopping crime in our communities and making our streets safer.
✅ Putting Canadians First, for a change – Protect Canadians from the threat of Donald Trump

Dave Carroll is ready to stand up for you!
