Jody Wilson-Raybould won’t run in next election:
In a statement posted online Thursday
morning, Wilson-Raybould said that while it was not a quick or easy
decision to make, she is exiting federal politics to continue pushing
for the issues she cares most about—Indigenous reconciliation, climate
change, and social and racial justice— “in different venues.”
She said that deep change is needed to address the “regression” and
“marginalization” in Parliament, which she said has become fixated on
partisan gains over real action. She now feels that she can better
address these issues from outside of the House of Commons.
