I am viewing this Liberal recruiting several floor crossers (Evan Soloman confirmed this) for immediate power gain is akin to deciding to getting absolutely shitfaced on Kraken Rum.
1. Its legal and sort of acceptable, certainly not smart;
2. You will enjoy it in the beginning; and
3. Your going to pay for it dearly later on and it maybe quite serious potentially fatal (for the party in this case).

Oh well, Avi Lewis and the NDP will welcome far left voters soon to flee the Liberal party.

I do agree that the NDP might grab a few more of those champagne socialist types from the LPC.

But as long as Carney is able to grab more of the PC types from the CPC I think the LPC and Canada will be better off for it.

will remain in power which is the only thing that matters to them.

You should heed the words of Warren Kinsella (Former Chretien Staffer and life long Liberal) he is warning that Carney getting a majority will mean probably mean nothing unless he suddenly changes direction. He doesn't anticipate they will. He also warns this fuel the flames of not only Alberta seperation, but most likely Saskatchewan and Quebec as well. Nothing says unity like a power grab. Waren correctly predicted that Trudeau will step down and stated his caucus would push him out, almost a YEAR before it happened.

You don't watch trends. You don't pay attention to history. Your just stuck in the moment of what is right now, political bliss.

I took the time a few months ago at work, to go back and read some of your older post. Your not nostradamus by a long shot (broken clocks are correct twice a day). Your so eager for your team to win, that you can't grasps the consequences of that "victory"

Everything has a price, and I suspect this one will be very high price. Go ahead and celebrate, like the guy who drinks a whole bottle of rum.

I maintain, when the CPC shows themselves to be a viable alternative to the LPC I will happily not care if they win or not.

Quebec won't care. Some Albertans are sore losers. If your separatist agenda is driven solely by my party didn't win, I want out, then you aren't running a sovereignty project, you're having a temper tantrum.

It's funny, because I went back and read your greatest hits as well. "Where are the other floor crossers?" is my favorite one. Election by the end of 2026 is a decent runner up.

I've been more conscious of my posts here and have gone to great lengths not to celebrate. Unless you can point to one recently where it appears I am gloating or rubbing it in?

"Where are the other floor crossers?" is my favorite one.

Go back and read further. I admit to making mistakes or at times admit I am guessing.

I am saying it this accepting floor crossings in these numbers is going to bite the liberals in the ass.

I can't tell you how or when.

I remember a cocky pro Liberal lady (a former work college) after Kathleen Wynne won her majority in Ontario in 2024 stating "Liberals will always run Ontario...blah, blah, blah" and in 2018? The party was done.

Enjoy this victory, payment is coming later.

CPC shows themselves to be a viable alternative to the LPC

And the media practically campaigning for the very ones handing them big pay cheques. Pierre and the CPC platform is excellent. Their messaging was off last election and Trump was the juggernaut that truly shaped the election.

For the Liberals now 13 months into Carney leadership, results matter and very, very few to date have been produced.

Quebec won't care. Some Albertans are sore losers.

Your Quebecois? Don't speak for them. The Bloc gets votes for a reason. Crapping over Albertans? Stupid move.

driven solely by my party didn't win, I

It isn't that at all. Albertans tossed gave the NDP a chance in 2015. They are flexible.

They are sitting on a gold mine and all the f*cking dithering and excuse mongering going on is getting sickening to unleashing something the world is begging Canada for. Imagine if you had 5 super rare apple trees in your backyard and the apples were so valuable that poeple pay top dollar for your apples. Then imagine someone telling you can only harvest half a tree each year and limit your potential. YOU would be pretty pissed I assume.

agenda is driven solely by my party didn't win

How did the 121,027 Conservative voters who voted the 4 conservative floor crossers feel? They got the votes in those ridings and for selfish reasons, they cross the floor.

How do the 2,853 NDP voters feel about Lori crossing the floor?

Maybe legal but it is not moral.
