  • Liberal MP Marco Mendicino will not seek re-election, saying it's "the right time, for me and my family" to step aside. The former cabinet minister made the announcement in a letter posted to social media on Thursday.

Marco Mendicino, a former Liberal cabinet minister who served as Canada's public safety minister, has announced he will not seek re-election. His decision comes after a series of controversies, including his handling of the transfer of notorious serial killer Paul Bernardo to a medium-security prison, which led to significant public and political backlash. Mendicino also faced criticism for his management of the foreign interference file and the response to the trucker convoy protest in Ottawa. Despite these challenges, he expressed pride in his accomplishments, such as the passage of Bill C-21, which aimed at gun control, and his efforts in addressing issues like car theft and support for Ukraine. Mendicino's tenure was marked by both legislative achievements and significant political missteps, leading to his decision to step back from the political arena.
