That's Harper of the Green Party, not the PM

At least one amusing sideshow to the federal election came to an end this week when Stephen Harper - a personal trainer, not the prime minister - announced that he has stepped down as the Green Party candidate in Burnaby-Douglas.
The B.C. Harper told 24 hours that his wife recently accepted a new job in London, England, and the couple will move overseas this weekend. The party is expected to name a new candidate within a few days.
But the departing nominee still had a little advice for voters. “I’d like to see Stephen Harper out of office – the other Stephen Harper, that is,” he said.
