MacEachern entered provincial politics in the 1988 election, defeating Progressive Conservative Bruce Clark by 1,725 votes in the Cape Breton East riding.[3] He was re-elected in the 1993 election by almost 6,000 votes.[4] On June 11, 1993, MacEachern was appointed to the Executive Council of Nova Scotia as Minister of Education and Culture.[5][6] In 1996, he was shuffled to Minister of Community Services.[7] When Russell MacLellan won the leadership of the Liberal party and became Premier, MacEachern announced he was leaving politics and returning to teaching. He finished his term as MLA for Cape Breton East and finished his teaching career at Glace Bay High School. He is presently a resident of Cape Breton, Nova Scotia[8] and did not seek re-election in 1998.[9]
