Government sources say former premier Dalton McGuinty will resign his seat in the legislature today. McGuinty took over the Ottawa-South seat from his father, Dalton McGuinty Senior, and has served as an M-P-P for 23 years. He said just last month that he would remain the M-P-P for the riding until the next general election. McGuinty had only shown up in the legislature twice since he was replaced by Kathleen Wynne as premier in February. And he didn't attend yesterday's vote on the minority government's budget, which passed with support from the New Democrats. The scandal over the Liberals' decisions to cancel gas plants in Oakville and Mississauga to save seats in the 2011 election haunted McGuinty from the moment the vote reduced his party to a minority. McGuinty suddenly prorogued the legislature and announced his resignation as premier last October, hours before the committee hearings were to start into the gas plants. McGuinty's resignation would mean Wynne will have to call three byelections. She must call byelections by mid-August in Windsor and London to replace former finance minister Dwight Duncan and former energy minister Chris Bentley.
