Pete Luckett

Luckett's TV career started while in Saint John as a frequent guest on the CBC television show Midday.

Upon moving to Nova Scotia in the early 1990s, Luckett became a contributing guest to the Halifax CTV affiliate, ATV, where he hosted a bi-weekly segment on fruit and vegetables on the supperhour news show Live at Five.

Luckett has also written a column for the Halifax Chronicle-Herald and serves as a consultant for Chartwells, which delivers all food services at Acadia University, near his home.

In December 2011, Luckett starred as a cab driver at the end of a TV ad for the NSLC encouraging Nova Scotians not to drink and drive by saying "If you've had a few, your car has too".

In 1999, Luckett made headlines when he won a court battle against the Government of Nova Scotia when he sought to keep his Bedford store open on Sunday.

To circumvent Nova Scotia's Sunday shopping laws, Luckett registered sections of his Bedford store as separate businesses.
