DescriptionTORONTO - Peter Kent, a former anchor for CBC's The National and for Global TV, wants to run for the Conservatives in the next federal election.

Kent will seek the Conservative nomination in the midtown Toronto riding of St. Paul's.

St. Paul's, an affluent residential constituency that includes the mansions of Forest Hill, is currently held by Liberal MP Carolyn Bennett, the minister of state for public health.

Voters in the riding have often swung with the national trend.

Since 1935, Liberal candidates have won St. Paul's in 11 elections and Conservatives have won 10 times.
