Smart.

I imagine the backlash would be worse if he said it was over and then more did cross over.

Granted, smart as far as damage control, not smart in the sense that he doesn't seem to address the driving issues behind the defections.

Fair comment.

What would you say are the actual issues driving the defections?


(Forgive me if these have already been clearly spelled out somewhere)

From what I've been able to gather, it's the playing games in parliament as opposed to working with the LPC on areas of shared interests.

Case in point.

CPC held up the committee on the removal of the carbon tax.

CPC trying to sow division in LPC ranks over the MOU with Alberta as opposed to wanting to work to get it moving as fast as possible.

Where’s the foreign lobbyists’ registry?​

The previous Justin Trudeau government claimed to have been 'actively considering' one since February 2021

I seen this interesting post on Reddit about this. Notice anything?

Shocking news from the Liberal camp.

Liberals concealed deal with alleged 'raging antisemite' Laith Marouf, Conservative MPs say​

The Liberal government concealed a deal with alleged “raging antisemite” Laith Marouf, two Conservative MPs say after they learned about it through a written inquiry.

Marouf received $122,661 as part of a Canadian Heritage program to deliver anti-racism lectures. According to Community Media Advocacy Centre (CMAC), where Marouf was a senior consultant who led seminars, three consultative events by the centre took place in Montreal, Vancouver and Halifax in 2022.

“While receiving this significant amount from taxpayers, Marouf published vile antisemitic statements, including calling Jewish people ‘loud-mouthed bags of human feces,’ and even fantasized about shooting Jewish people,” said Ontario MP Melissa Lantsman and Alberta MP Rachael Thomas in a joint statement. The alleged “vile antisemitic statements” were reportedly published on Marouf’s X account. Although his X account was private, the Canadian Press reported, screenshots of the posts were shared online in August 2022. They were not independently verified but showed Marouf’s name and photo.
