It must be different in Canada. Here in the US, politicians only "give up" their office once they're already elected. Obama was a senator up until the moment he was sworn in.
Really, she's just doing her political self harm. She would have a much easier time traveling and doing meet-n-greets as a governor, since she would have an excuse to travel (She's done a few, since the election).
Even if she just wanted out of politics, it would've been best to wait for her term to expire to avoid two separate rounds of questionings (One now, one in 2012). Although I suppose if that was her goal, she timed it fairly well. With the death of MJ, the news has hardly given any attention to her.
