“When I first thought about my time in political public service, my plan was to keep representing the hardworking people of Brantford-Brant South for years to come,” Brock wrote on X.

“Following careful consideration, I’ve decided to step down as a member of Parliament.”

His departure will trigger another Ontario byelection.
