Chester-St. Margaret's MLA Hugh MacKay says he's decided to resign from the Liberal caucus after he was recently charged with impaired driving for a second time. MacKay was charged with impaired driving earlier this month in relation to an alleged offence dating back to Nov. 22, 2018. As such, I have made the difficult decision to resign from the Nova Scotia Liberal Caucus." According to court documents, MacKay "was impaired by alcohol or drug … at or near Stillwater Lake," near Upper Tantallon. MacKay is due in provincial court in Halifax on March 16 to face the most recent charge.
