A person previously named as a potential candidate for the Progressive Conservatives in Turtle Mountain has told the Sun he doesn’t plan to run for the party in the next election.
On Tuesday, the Sun cited the Killarney Guide, which had reported that Ed Grenier, who has served as the PCs’ Turtle Mountain riding association president, was seeking the party’s nomination. The Sun was unable to reach Grenier on Monday.
Reached by phone on Thursday, Grenier said that he had contemplated running, but decided against it for personal reasons and that the timing wasn’t right.
On Monday, the NDP announced former longtime Killarney-Turtle Mountain mayor Rick Pauls as its candidate in Turtle Mountain.
Wally Daudrich, who narrowly lost the 2025 PC leadership vote against Obby Khan, announced in December that he is seeking the PC nomination in the riding.
In a statement to the Sun, the PCs said because the election is scheduled for so far away, it gives the potential party candidates “ample time to consider putting their names forward.”
It said plans for the nomination process will be made public in due course.
The next provincial election is scheduled for October 2027.
