Harper Isn’t Running Says Rempel

Says she’s heard from Harper directly that he won’t be running for CPC leader.

Conservative MP and possible leadership candidate Michelle Rempel says she’s heard directly from former PM Stephen Harper that he isn’t running:

“For those asking, I have it on good authority, that is from him directly, that @stephenharper is not seeking the Conservative leadership. So that’s that.”

Rempel Garner’s remarks follow some speculation that Harper would be seeking to regain his past post as CPC leader, following the departure of top candidates Pierre Poilievre and Rona Ambrose.
