The long-time area representative has announced he will not be seeking re-election this June.

The 74-year-old says he’s retiring for health and family reasons, adding it’s time to start a new chapter in his life.

“Very few, maybe less than a handful of people, have ever had the privilege of serving municipally, federally and provincially, so you get a real cross-section of the responsibilities,” says Kramp. “To have that privilege, it’s an incredible, incredible honour. But it also … has equally demanding responsibilities.”
