Jennifer McKenzie, who tried to move the New Brunswick NDP back to its socialist roots, has resigned as party leader, a day after members voted to hold a leadership convention before the end of August. On Sunday at Moncton's Darts Club, 95 delegates took part in the vote on whether to hold a leadership convention. In a Monday afternoon scrum, Jennifer McKenzie told reporters she's proud of the work she did before resigning as leader of the NDP. McKenzie, left, with Green Party Leader David Coon, People's Alliance Leader Kris Austin, Liberal Leader Brian Gallant, Progressive Conservative Leader Blaine Higgs debated in Riverview during the 2018 elections. "[The Greens] are not a socialist party, they're not a party to the left," she said.
