With recent boundary changes, all of Antigonish will be covered by the Cape Breton-Canso-Antigonish riding, while Sydney-Victoria changes to Sydney-Glace Bay. Kelloway, who lives in Sydney River, said the changes mean he currently resides in the area covered by Sydney-Glace Bay.
Kelloway said he informed the Liberal Party of his decision, with the party eventually picking it’s candidate with the possibility of a nomination meeting in the future. Current Sydney-Victoria MP Jamie Battiste also announced his plan to seek the Sydney-Glace Bay seat.
