quebec city NDP MP Alexandre Boulerice said mon that he's earnestly considering running for Québec Solidaire in this year's provincial election.
French-language media had number one reported endure week that Boulerice was looking into running for the progressive sovereignist party this fall.
"Right now I have a mandate, I am a federal member of Parliament, I'm going to do my job. But everything is open. I am thinking about it," Boulerice said when asked by reporters on Parliament Hill if he was considering a provincial bid.
If Boulerice makes the leap it would leave the NDP without a seat in Quebec.
First elected in 2011, Boulerice is the last remaining MP from the "Orange Wave" that swept the province under former leader Jack Layton in that year's federal election.
Delegates from Québec Solidare voted Saturday in favour of an exception to their own rules to allow a man to run in the Montreal riding of Gouin. The party had previously set a rule that reserved ridings for women or non-binary candidates.
Gouin, which overlaps Boulerice's riding of Rosemont-La Petite-Patrie, is currently represented by Québec Solidaire MNA Gabriel Nadeau-Dubois who is not seeking re-election.
