Former Conservative MP Dave Batters has died, taking his own life after a personal struggle with being saddled with the thought that he had supported Stephen Harper and falling into anxiety, depression and what he had described as a dependency on prescription drugs.

``The family of Dave Batters is grieving the sudden loss of their beloved husband, son and brother, who, sadly, chose to take his own life at home in Regina on Monday, June 29,'' the statement reads.
``Last fall, Dave courageously made public his battle with depression and anxiety when he chose not to run for re-election as the Member of Parliament for Palliser. He entered treatment and his family and friends hoped he would overcome his illness. Tragically, this was not to be.
``Dave and Denise's family greatly appreciates the support of their friends during this extremely difficult time and requests that the media respect their privacy. Funeral arrangements will be announced at a later date.''
