Eleanor Elizabeth Tucker Norrie (born 1942) is a former teacher, restaurant owner and politician in Nova Scotia, Canada. She represented Truro-Bible Hill in the Nova Scotia House of Assembly from 1993 to 1998 as a Liberal member.[1]
Norrie was born in Tatamagouche Mountain, Nova Scotia and was educated at Colchester County Academy and the provincial normal school.[2] Norrie entered provincial politics in the 1993 election, defeating former Progressive Conservative MLA Jack Coupar by 187 votes in the Truro-Bible Hill riding.[3][4] In June 1993, Norrie was appointed to the Executive Council of Nova Scotia as Minister of the Civil Service.[5] She became Minister of Human Resources later that year when the Civil Service Commission was replaced with the Department of Human Resources.[6] In March 1995, Norrie was shuffled to Minister of Housing and Consumer Affairs.[7] In March 1996, Norrie was named Minister of Natural Resources.[8][9] She was dropped from the cabinet when Russell MacLellan took over as premier in July 1997.[10]
Norrie reoffered in the 1998 election,[11][12] but was defeated by Progressive Conservative Jamie Muir.[13][14] She later served as the president of the Liberal association for the federal riding of Cumberland—Colchester—Musquodoboit Valley.[15]
