Two Possible Election Candidates For Liberals In City

The fall of the Harper government is just hours away -- and -- as the country prepares for a federal election campaign -- some names are giving serious consideration to seeking the local Liberal nomination.

Former Saint John M-P Paul Zed has been pondering a return to politics and is holding a news conference later this morning. Zed lost to Conservative Rodney Weston by less than 500-votes in the last election and word is Liberal leader Michael Ignatieff has been pushing him to get back into the political arena.

Meantime, Deputy Mayor Stephen Chase confirms to CHSJ News he is also thinking about seeking the federal Liberal nomination.
