Newly-elected school chair also wants to be MP

Shaun Chen was elected chair of the Toronto District School Board at its first meeting of the new board yesterday. There is a good deal of talk about a new start at the dysfunctional board. But the stories announcing the election result also say that Mr. Chen, who is 34, will seek a Liberal nomination in next year’s federal election. If Mr Chen is as good as he is ambitious, everything will be just fine.
