Green Party Leader Elizabeth May was hospitalized for a part of last week due to “sheer overwork, fatigue, and stress” incurred mostly from Parliament’s spring session, according to her husband, who says she had to work overly long hours through May and June.

Husband John Kidder said in an online post on July 9 that Ms. May, whose riding is the B.C. constituency of Saanich-Gulf Islands, was discharged from the Saanich Peninsula Hospital on July 8 after a few days under observation.
