Walker steps down as 'Jacks Govenor


The Governor of the CIBC Wood Gundy Lumberjacks has stepped down. David Walker decided to leave the position and vacate his seat on the team's board of directors to focus more on municipal politics. He says he expects to be busy over the next year as he makes a run at the mayors seat. Walker says he also stepped down to dispel any notions that his role with Bridgewater council meant the Lumberjacks received whatever they wanted. He says he expects owner Ken Petrie to fill the position for the remainder of the year. Municipal and School Board elections will he held in Nova Scotia in October.
