From 1979 to 1988 he represented the riding of Edmonton—Strathcona, but in 1988 he moved to the newly created riding of Edmonton Southeast which he has represented ever since.

He was originally a member of the Progressive Conservative Party. His first attempt at election, in the 1968 federal election in the riding of Vancouver Centre as a Progressive Conservative was unsuccessful. He ran again as a Tory in 1979 in Edmonton and has been a Member of Parliament ever since.

In April 2005 he received some media attention when he speculated about quitting the Liberal Party and joining the Conservatives due to his disgust with the sponsorship scandal, saying that the issue made Canada look like "a northern banana republic." On April 12 2005 he announced that he was crossing the floor to sit as an independent MP. He also cited the Same sex marriage issue and Canada's lack of action on Darfur as reasons for quiting. He asserts that he has no plans to move back to the Conservatives and also stated that he has no current plans to run for reelection.
