MP who stepped down for Pierre Poilievre's byelection says he'll run again | CBC Radio

Damien Kurek says he doesn't plan to stay away from politics for long.

The former Conservative MP recently gave up his seat in the Alberta riding of Battle River-Crowfoot so that party leader Pierre Poilievre could run there.

Poilievre, who lost his longtime Ottawa-area seat during this year's federal election, is hoping that Monday's byelection in Battle River-Crowfoot will put him back in the House of Commons.
