Judy Wasylycia-Leis says she’ll continue to fight for the issues she believes in, despite losing to incumbent Mayor Sam Katz on Wednesday night.

The former NDP MP said activism is in her future and she will remain in Winnipeg to be involved within the community.

“I don’t need to think about another political career at this point,” she said at her election night headquarters at Canad Inns Polo Park.

Wasylycia-Leis received 43% of the vote in Wednesday’s election and delivered her concession speech.
