Vincent-Joseph Pottier (11 April 1897 – 4 February 1980) was a Liberal party member of the Canadian House of Commons. He was born in Belleville, Nova Scotia and became a barrister by career. Pottier served as a school commissioner and town councillor.〔 He was first elected to Parliament at the Shelburne—Yarmouth—Clare riding in the 1935 general election, the first Acadian from Nova Scotia to join the House of Commons. He was re-elected in 1940. After completing his second term, the 19th Canadian Parliament, Pottier did not seek further re-election in 1945. In 1947, Pottier was appointed a judge at County Court number 1 in Halifax. In 1965, he became the first Acadian appointed to the Nova Scotia Supreme Court, serving in that role until his retirement after five years. In his final years, he donated his time supporting the Dalhousie Legal Aid Service. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Vincent Pottier」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
