He was active for a number of years in that Roman Catholic church, and now attends the Shalom Family Worship Centre, an evangelical Protestant organization.

In 2000 (running as an Independent), he received 146 votes, against 15680 for Blaikie. In the 2004 election, Scott ran in the redistributed riding of Elmwood-Transcona.
