Citing personal reasons, a longtime Rothesay MLA is leaving the political fray to lead Effiency NB.
Margaret-Ann Blaney will resign as Energy Minister on the 25th and begin her new job early next month.
She tells CHSJ News she is now a single mom and needs to give more time to her family.
She says she didn't feel she was doing justice to being a good mom or in her work.
