Jordan Brown MHA (born September 14, 1989) is a Canadian politician who was elected to the Newfoundland and Labrador House of Assembly in the 2019 Newfoundland and Labrador general election.[1][2][3][4] He represents the electoral district of Labrador West as a member of the Newfoundland and Labrador New Democratic Party.[5][6] He was re-elected in the 2021 provincial election.[7][8]

Early life and career

Brown trained as a welder in Happy Valley-Goose Bay and returned to Labrador City to work. In 2013 he helped restart the local Heritage Society.[9] In 2014, he led a successful year-long campaign to have the Labrador flag recognized as the symbol of Labrador and flown at the land border crossings in Labrador and at government buildings.[10] In 2017, Brown unsuccessfully sought election to the Labrador City town council.

Political career

In 2022, Brown criticized the provincial government's claim that the Trans-Labrador Highway had been completed.[11] He argued that it isn't finished until a road reaches Labrador's north coast as far as Nain. In 2023, Brown criticized the diversion of obstetrical services from Happy Valley-Goose Bay to Labrador City, stating that Labrador City's hospital is too understaffed to provide for the central and northern regions of Labrador.[12]

Brown has called for a provincial ban on scab workers.[13]

In 2023, Brown criticized the Bloc Québécois for having a map Newfoundland and Labrador–Quebec border with Quebec having control of Labrador.[14][15]

Awards and recognition

In 2017, Brown was awarded the Labradorians of Distinction Medal.[16]
