James 'Buddy' MacEachern

James 'Buddy' MacEachern

James "Buddy" MacEachern was a Nova Scotia fisherman and politician. In the 1974 provincial election he was elected to the Nova Scotia Legislative Assembly as the NDP member for Cape Breton Centre. When party leader Jeremy Akerman resigned, MacEachern became the party's interim leader by the caucus and served for a month until a leadership convention elected Alexa McDonough as leader. In 1981, MacEachern was defeated by the riding's former MLA, Dr. Mike Laffin.
