A shocking move rocks Ottawa: Nova Scotia MP Chris D’Entremont crosses the floor from Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives to Mark Carney’s Liberals, putting the Liberals just two votes shy of a majority. What does this mean for Canada’s political landscape — and is Poilievre’s leadership on the line?
In this episode, host Mike Wixson sits down with veteran broadcaster Jim Lang to unpack one of the most dramatic political shifts in recent memory. Together, they explore the cracks forming inside the Conservative Party and what this floor-crossing could mean for the next election.
Key Topics:
• Why Chris D’Entremont left the Conservatives for the Liberals.
• Inside speculation on Pierre Poilievre’s leadership struggles.
• How Mark Carney and the Liberals may use this to seize power.
• The growing divide between federal and provincial conservatives.
• Who could emerge as the next Conservative leader.
