He represented the Ontario riding of Huron—Bruce where he was first elected in the 1980 federal election. He won re-election in the 1984 and 1988 federal elections, therefore becoming a member in the 32nd, 33rd and 34th Canadian Parliaments.

Cardiff left federal politics after his defeat in the 1993 federal election to Paul Steckle of the Liberal party. He died in hospital at Listowel, Ontario on 31 October 2013.[1]

He is the grandson of former member of parliament Elston Cardiff, who represented Huron-North and later Huron.
