Audio: Milloy not running in next election

Kitchener-Centre will have a new MPP when the next provincial election rolls around.

John Milloy announced on Friday morning that he will not be running again.

“…This has not been an easy decision and has been the subject of considerable reflection for more than a year.  After over ten years in office, however, I feel that it is time to pursue new opportunities outside of elected life.  Most importantly, I look forward to spending more time with my wife and two young sons, aged eight and three, who have made considerable sacrifices to allow me to pursue a career in politics.” Milloy said in a release.

He says it wasn’t an easy decision, but he’s thought about it for more than a year.

Milloy says that after a decade in office, it’s time to “pursue new opportunities outside of elected life.”

He says he wants to spend more time with his wife and two sons, aged three and eight.

Milloy had to undergo surgery two years ago to remove blockages from his heart after suffering chest pains.
