Matt Jones is also stepping down.
The last time there was a mass exodus like this was in the early 90s when the federal PC party were wiped out by the Liberals.

Oh oh. To very loosely paraphrase an old saying, to lose one MLA is unfortunate, to lose two looks like carelessness.

Unlikely, but I wish. Most likely leaving the GoA altogether.

Oh they'll be back working for the UCP in some way if they get re-elected. They'll be put on some board or in charge of some government agency that will help the UCP carve up even more of this province for their donors and friends

It is unlikely that they get re-elected, since neither of them are running.

I think his reference was to the UCP getting re-elected, not to the two ministers who have announced they're not running.

My bad, recovering from a lobotomy. They took the top half.

I meant if the UCP gets re-elected. They'll both get nice cushy appointments
