New Democrat MP Daniel Blaikie to resign his seat, work for Manitoba premier
A New Democrat member of Parliament, Daniel Blaikie, is resigning his seat in Winnipeg to work for Manitoba's NDP government.
Blaikie has been in federal politics for almost a decade and will step down at the end of March to become a senior adviser on intergovernmental affairs for Premier Wab Kinew.
Blaikie's new job will allow him to spend more time with his family, following in his father's footsteps as he takes over a seat with a long history of NDP representation.
