Barely sourced BLP of a mayor whose town is not large enough to meet the demands of WP:POLITICIAN; his only other claim of notability besides that is having been an unsuccessful candidate in the Canadian federal election, 2011. I'm willing to consider withdrawing the nomination if somebody can source it up enough to convince me that the mayor of a suburban town of 18,000 people should be considered notable just for being a mayor, but in its current form it's a delete.

Redirect per Location. Fails WP:POLITICIAN, but the standard for redirects is much lower. Ray^Talk 19:13, 13 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Causton is a well known politician, in a town of some regional prominence (the tweed curtain is well known throughout the island, if not throughout the province). There SHOULD be many sources out there for him. I can't seem to find many though - bizarre considering he has been in local politics for so long. DigitalC (talk) 00:26, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
