Conservatives in Kenora-Rainy River now have someone interested in running for the party in this October's provincial election.
He's Rod McKay, a Kenora City councillor and manager of the Kenora Forest Products mill.
"I've been thinking about this for a while," says McKay. "I a couple of personal issues I had to sort out with my health. Now that I've got that figured out, I'm putting my name on the ticket and hope to be nominated by the nomination committee in the near future."
So far the party has not indicated when it might hold its nomination meeting.
