During his time as an elected representative, Younger was recognized for his community and regional accomplishments including the development of a redevelopment plan for the Main Street business district in Dartmouth,[6] his work improving Shubie Park and the Shubenacadie Canal system,[7] and his role in the construction of the Dartmouth Community Centre.[3][8]

Younger has been involved in working on energy and environmental issues in Nova Scotia.[9] As Chair of HRM's Energy Committee he was a player in the development and analysis of energy policy, and had a role in seeing a number of district, geothermal, and alternative energy projects moved forward.[9] He is often asked to speak on energy and environmental issues at local and national conferences.[3]

On October 22, 2013, Younger was appointed to the Executive Council of Nova Scotia as Minister of Energy, Minister Responsible for the Gaming Control Act, and Minister for Communications Nova Scotia.[10]

On November 5, 2015, Younger was removed from his cabinet position and the Liberal caucus, after he invoked parliamentary privilege in order to unilaterally excuse himself from attending as a witness at the criminal trial of a woman accused of assaulting him.[14][15] Premier Stephen McNeil called the privilege an "obscure law that he [Younger] and his lawyer determined to use."[16]

After becoming an independent, Younger's private health information was leaked by the Premier's office. An independent report by the Nova Scotia Privacy Commissioner found that the Premier's office failed in its duty of care to protect health information and found staff in the office had not read policies meant to protect information.[17]
