We ended up losing the rotting, but she decided not to run again.
And I remember having a chat with her about it.
She said, James, I ran for office because I wanted to talk about Justice Files.

People see me as a bilingual Metis woman from outside of sort of the normal form of sort of conservative politicians.
And so I got to go to finance.
I learned a lot from Jim.
Then I got pigeonholed back into being the heritage minister.
It was a great privilege.
But I want to I want to talk about justice issues.
I want to go back to Winnipeg and I want to be a cop again.
I want to I want to sort of slide across the hood and grab the guy who was about to punch his wife and get him to the ground and handcuff him and get him in the police car and stop him from punching his wife.
That's what that's satisfying.
I want to get into a car chase and pull over a drunk driver and stop him from smashing into a bunch of kids at a bus stop.
That's satisfying to me.
I want to deal with justice files.
That's why I'm here.
But she never found her voice to articulate that I'm in politics because I'm a cop.
And now I have an opportunity to change the laws that I was forced with enforcing.
And I'm frustrated by justice issues.
