Kelowna-Mission MLA Steve Thomson has put any rumours about his political future to rest.
Thomson, who was first elected as a Liberal MLA in 2009, has announced he will be seeking another term.
There was growing speculation that Thompson was not going to run again. He’s in his mid-sixties.
But Premier Christy Clark says Thomson will indeed be running again and said he has been acclaimed as the party’s candidate for Kelowna-Mission in next spring’s election.
Thomson is Minister of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations.
“It has been an honour to serve and be your voice and I look forward to working to get even more accomplished in 2017 and beyond,” said Thomson.
Next spring’s election takes place May 9, 2017.
Christy Clark has also been acclaimed as Liberal candidate for Kelowna-West and MLA Norm Letnick will be running again as the Liberal candidate for Kelowna-Lake Country.
