Esquimalt-Saanich-Sooke NDP MP Randall Garrison says he is considering retiring in April, depending on when the next federal election occurs.
Randall Garrison said Thursday that he’s hoping that he not does not have to serve out his full term as MP and will consider retiring in April, depending on when the next federal election occurs.
Earlier in the day, Singh had already introduced Tait as the new candidate for Esquimalt-Saanich-Sooke and referred to Randall Garrison as the “previous MP” in a press conference, calling her a “star candidate.” She began considering entering the federal stage last December, when she was in Ottawa for federal advocacy and Garrison invited her to observe question period and some committees.
In a previous interview with the Times Colonist, Tait said that federal politics will be quite different from what she’s used to.
