InfoDonald Arseneault was first elected to the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick in the provincial general election held June 9, 2003. As a member of the official opposition, he is the critic for interests relating to human resources, intergovernmental affairs and international relations, and official languages. He is a member of the Standing Committee on Crown Corporations. He is a Liberal MLA and he represents the constituency of Dalhousie-Restigouche East. He is the Caucus chairman for the official opposition.

He is vice-president of the New Brunswick section of the Assemblée parlementaire de la Francophonie.

He was born in Dalhousie, N.B., and is the son of Jacques Arseneault of Balmoral, and Ghislaine Godin of Maisonnette. A graduate of Polyvalente Aux quatre vents, he studied business administration for two years at the Université de Moncton before moving on to the Dieppe Community College where he completed the three-year co-op marketing program.

He returned home to serve as an economic development officer with the Department of Economic Development, Tourism, and Culture in Dalhousie.

During this time, he became the first person in New Brunswick to earn the certification of Business Retention and Expansion Master Consultant through Business Retention & Expansion International (BREI), a nonprofit professional association of economic development professionals working for the advancement of business retention and expansion as an economic development strategy for communities. He coordinated efforts to put in place the BR&E program in six pilot communities in New Brunswick, including one in Dalhousie.

He transferred to the Department of Training and Employment Development as the marketing director with the NBCC-Dieppe, and later returned to northern New Brunswick as a marketing and communications advisor with the Mouvement des caisses populaires acadienes.
