Horner retired to Vancouver Island where he voiced his opinions on political issues, often at odds with the contemporary Conservative Party, advocating an increase in the minimum wage and arguing in favour of anti-poverty measures in order to combat crime instead of mandatory minimum sentences and other law and order proposals.
He died on April 3, 2014 in British Columbia.
