Mark Watton, whose experience includes a stint as a senior advisor in the Prime Minister’s Office and chief of staff to cabinet minister Ken Dryden, is thinking of seeking the Liberal nomination in Humber West.
There’s a story in the Friday Western Star.
Now a lawyer who has been working out of Toronto since 2008, the 36-year-old is seriously thinking about throwing his hat in the ring as a Liberal candidate for the byelection to replace former premier Danny Williams in Humber West.
He will be returning home to Corner Brook for the Christmas break in the coming days and will use that time to do more thinking before making a decision.
Regular readers of this corner will also know Watton as the author of nottawa, a political blog he’s maintained for the past few years or so.
