Former QuestAir CEO spurns Grit advances

The federal Liberals have approached British Columbia Technology Industries Association chair Jonathan Wilkinson about running for the party in North Vancouver. But, speaking with Public Eye, the Rhodes Scholar and former QuestAir Technologies Inc. president and chief executive officer said he's not interesting in making a bid for public office in the short-term.

"I certainly have some interest I would say in that whole thing. But I think what I've told the folks in the federal Liberal party is the timing probably is just not very good for me. I just recently accepted a new position. And my children are small. So while it's certainly something I'd be interested in in the future, I think probably in the short-term it's not likely."

North Vancouver is presently represented by Conservative parliamentarian Andrew Saxton.
