Description | OTTAWA — Liberal MP Jean Lapierre told reporters Monday he may not run in the next federal election.
Lapierre left a high-paying job as a Montreal talk radio host in 2003 to work for former prime minister Paul Martin and later become his Quebec lieutenant.
"I said when I came back to politics that I came with Paul Martin and I was going to go with Paul Martin. As of Thursday night, I feel emotionally and morally relieved of my commitment and now it's for me to decide what I'm going to do," Lapierre told reporters before question period.
Lapierre emphasized that any decision he makes has nothing to do with the party's selection of Stephane Dion as leader at the weekend convention in Montreal. |
