    Yea, thank god we instead have a conservative who’s first reaction to the US/Israel attacks was “Canada will unconditionally support the US” and who only bery slowly afterwards changed his stance.

    The only thing good about this is the floor crossing to be able to point to the Liberals next elections and say to all the “strategic” voters that they’re literally voting for conservatives and/or a party which was attractive to Conservatives. We shouldn’t need that, because oh my god, but whatever, I guess.

      14% of the NDP party members have crossed the floor, should people on the other side, centre right who voted Liberal be concerned they are also “literally voting for the NDP and/or a party which was attractive to the NDP”?

        Probably not, because there is a reason you listed NDP floor crossers as a percentage rather than an absolute value.
