Barbara Baird Filliter

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Barbara Baird, also known as Barbara Baird Filliter, was the leader of the Progressive Conservative Party in the Canadian province of New Brunswick from 1989 to 1991.

She led the party during a time when it held no seats at all in the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick, having been shut out by Frank McKenna's historic sweep of all 58 seats in the 1987 provincial election. She was generally regarded as an ineffective leader, and was replaced by Dennis Cochrane before the 1991 election.
