In June 2009, Boudreau was appointed the Ministerial Assistant for the Department of Fisheries and Aquaculture.[2]
In May 2013, Boudreau's private member bill to officially recognize Nova Scotia's provincial flag passed third reading in the Nova Scotia legislature. It was an 11-year-old constituent of Boudreau's who, while doing research for a school project, discovered that the flag had never been officially recognized, despite being in use since 1858.[3]
Boudreau was defeated when he ran for re-election in 2013.[4]
