CALGARY – Former Alberta treasurer and one-time Tory leadership candidate Jim Dinning says he won’t be in the running to replace Alison Redford.
Dinning has tweeted a link to a piece he wrote for the Calgary Herald in which he says his political “best-before” date has passed.
He says he remains an ardent Progressive Conservative but it’s time for new blood.
