Jobs Minister Pat Bell not running for re-election

BC Jobs Minister Pat Bell says the discovery of a relatively rare type of aneurism has led to his decision to not run for re-election.

Bell says the size of the aneurism is now being monitored — if it grows, he’ll have to undergo surgery.

He says he needs to turn his mind to his health, and that would take his attention away from responsibilities as an MLA.

Bell will continue in cabinet until the election.
