Nault QUITS!

Stunning news from Ottawa today.
Kenora Rainy River MP Bob Nault has announced he is leaving politics & will not contest the Federal Liberal nomination in the soon to be created riding of Kenora.
In a release from his Parliament Hill office, the former Indian Affairs Minister says the decision to quit after 15 years was difficult on both a professional & personal level but he feels the time is right for himself & his family.
Just last week, Native leader Charles Fox, from Thunder Bay, announced his intention to run for the nomination.
In an interview with CKDR News, Nault said Fox is “not a credible candidate” & he would not be surprised to see the Liberals loose the seat in the next election if he (Fox) is the candidate.
Nault also urged the local Riding Executive to find a better qualified person to run but it is unclear if there might be someone willing to step in.
