This is the second NDP MLA to announce they are not running in a week.
Now, if I was a young, idealistic hyper partisan like my friend the Orange Rod, I would say something like "oh, looks like rats are jumping off the sinking ship"
But I won't. Hickes is 64. He's well past his prime. He deserves to retire just like everyone else.
It is encouraging to see some of the old guard stepping down (on both sides). Opens politics up to new people with new ideas.
