Carlos Leitão doesn't plan to jump ship to run for federal Liberals

QUEBEC — Former Liberal Finance Minister Carlos Leitão says he has no plans to jump ship and run for the federal Liberals in 2019 election.
In a tweet Friday morning, Leitão said he received a clear mandate from the voters of Robert Baldwin Oct. 1 and he intends to complete it, which means he will represent the riding for the next four years.
Rumours on Leitão’s future started to swirl Friday following comments made by 98.5 FM political analyst Bernard Drainville
