On January 14, 2013, Slater quit the BC Liberals after losing the nomination as the party's candidate in the 2013 election. Although he did plan to run as an independent, he withdrew his candidacy shortly afterward.

Prior to his election to the legislature, he was mayor of Osoyoos. Slater died on May 10, 2015, at the age of 63.
