In the aftermath of the New Times story, which revealed that Steve Nash was leaving the Suns this month to run for mayor of Victoria, British Columbia, Canada (Provide Link), the Phoenix Suns blanketed both their official Web site and the Internet with denials that their star point guard was exiting.

But the truth was delivered by Steve Nash himself after last night’s Suns-Spurs game. In response to a reporter’s question about his canadian political ambitions, he replied “Obviously I’ll be Prime Minister one day.”

Our story is true. We have gone back to our sources both within the
Suns organization and with former high-ranking Suns personnel and
received nothing but confirmations about Nash’s plans. We have
double-checked all our Canadian sources and they also say it’s a done
deal.

After November 15 the remarkable Steve Nash will be gone so enjoy his
wizardry while you can and please fill US Airways Center up for his
final appearance that night as the Suns square off against the Denver
Nuggets.
