Former CBC meteorologist Claire Martin is set to announce plans to seek the Green Party nomination in a B.C. riding for the upcoming federal election, the CBC reports.
Martin will be joined by Green Party Leader Elizabeth May at a news conference on Thursday in North Vancouver, according to a press release by the party.
Martin is familiar to many Canadians during her time as CBC's senior meteorologist, appearing on The National from 2005 to 2014 and winning awards for her weather presenting. She left CBC last year to join a Vancouver production company.
