Former B.C. premier John Horgan has died following a battle with cancer, his family confirmed on Tuesday.

The 65-year-old has been in the hospital for much of the past five months after being diagnosed with thyroid cancer in June.

The long-time politician was living in Berlin with his wife Ellie while serving as Canada’s ambassador to Germany. He died at the BC Cancer Centre in Victoria, B.C. at Royal Jubilee Hospital after returning to the province for end-of-life care.

His family said they received news last week that the cancer had spread through Horgan’s body and his family was with him on Tuesday when he passed.

Global’s Richard Zussman reports on the legacy he leaves behind.
