ESTEVAN - Souris-Moose Mountain MP Robert Kitchen announced Monday he will not be seeking re-election in the next federal vote.
“It has been a great honour and privilege to serve the people of southeast Saskatchewan as their member of Parliament, and to represent them in Ottawa for the last decade,” said Kitchen, who is a Conservative MP.
“I look forward to continuing on in my role as MP until the next federal election in 2025, and would like to thank the constituents of Souris-Moose Mountain who have shown me incredible support for the past 10 years."
Kitchen worked as a chiropractor in Estevan before becoming an MP. He was first elected in 2015, capturing 70.14 per cent of the vote. He was re-elected in 2019 with 84.4 per cent support and in 2021 with 76.4 per cent.
He said last fall he planned to seek another term as Souris-Moose Mountain's MP, but has since changed his mind.
