As the article points out, this is the same Matt Jeneroux that said he was going to resign last fall. Is he takeback-ing it before committing to an official end date, cancelling the by-election? From the November article:
Jeneroux later clarified that his “exact date of departure will be determined at a later day,” but suggested it would be “this spring.”
It’ll be interesting to hear what he has to say for himself.
“Those conversations [with his family over the holidays] have been honest, difficult and deeply personal at times. But they also led me to reflect on the gravity of the moment that our country is living through — which our prime minister addressed head on in his speech at Davos. For Canada, this is a moment that demands steady leadership, constructive collaboration between all parliamentarians.”
“After further reflection with my family, and conversations with colleagues and constituents, I will be continuing to serve in Parliament — and I will be working with Prime Minister Mark Carney as a part of his new government to help build our country’s strength as we face the challenges ahead.”
Bla bla blah…the windsock wants his cushy government job to last.
