Jody Wilson-Raybould and Jane Philpott will not run as Green Party candidates in the fall election, CBC News has learned. The two former Liberal cabinet ministers spoke with Green Party Leader Elizabeth May several times about possibly running for her party. Wilson-Raybould also attended May's wedding in Victoria at the end of April, stoking rumours that she might jump to the Greens. Wilson-Raybould currently sits as an independent MP for Vancouver Granvillle and Philpott for Markham-Stouffville. It isn't clear yet if Wilson-Raybould or Philpott will run as independents.
