Brockville – Retired Senator and longtime MPP Bob Runciman will be signing his book, ‘From Mad Dog to Senator’ this Saturday, November 25th at River West on King Street in Downtown Brockville.
It is being held from 11:30 am to 1:30 pm.
Runciman served at all three levels of government beginning in 1972 as a member of Brockville City Council. During his 29 years in the Ontario Legislature, he held six cabinet posts under three different premiers. He was the Interim Leader of the Ontario PC Party and held the position of Leader of the Official Opposition for more than two years. He concluded his career in the Canadian Senate where he chaired two standing committees and had three of his bills, including the so-called Border Boating Bill, become Canadian law.
The memoir, which has a five-star rating on Goodreads, details behind-the-scenes and looks at government and political processes, personal and family challenges, political issues and controversies he experienced and dealt with and the many individuals, both in and out of politics, who crossed his path.
From Mad Dog to Senator is now available online through bobrunciman.com and in selected bookstores and retail outlets
