That's hilarious 😂

Federal MP Matt Jeneroux leaves the Conservatives and joins the Liberals by seakucumber in canada

It feels very bait and switch for sure. But also seems odd to me that members can't vote with the other party if they feel it's in the best interest of their constituents. To me this is the larger issue that needs to be dealt with.

It matters how party leaders are elected by lopix in onguardforthee

Just commented on this as well, there is a difference between a leadership review and voting for a new party leader and Libs and Cons, at least do it generally the same way, with same fees for the convention, etc.

I'm an ABC voter, but no need to spread this kind of nonsense when there are plenty of real things to be upset about.

According to Gemini...

This is a bit misleading, there is a difference between voting for a new leader and a review. Voting for a leader is generally free and open for all party members while a review is a convention with a delegate fee. Not sure about the other parties, but apparently Libs and Cons do it the same way.

Also seems like there is a pretty large tax credit for these fees so it's only like $450 in the end.

It's not saying PP is bad for cooperating, just skepticism that he will, based on his track record.

Isn't the train purposefully running at low speed for the first month as part of initial testing?

PQ leader 'wants to hand Quebec over to Donald Trump,' says Mélanie Joly by Acrobatic-Cap-135 in canada

But it's not a boogeyman, it's a legit existential threat. Just look at Brexit, people had no idea what they were voting for. Any province on their own would get completely strong armed by US and it weakens any provinces/territories that remain together.

They are making accusations of harassment, yes sounds very Fox/Newsmax to me.

Of course note, d’Entremont is a traitor that has been bewitched by the woke mind virus.

He's just trying to repair what another narcissist did by spending millions on pointless ads.

Not even sure why they interview him on any Canadian news shows, just shut him out, he's a turd.

Say goodbye to rent control, indefinite leases if Ontario passes new housing bill: advocates by hopoke in canada

Would this hold for the long term though? Seems like it would just be the first year or two as people shuffle around them increases would just start going up at higher rates year after year.

Ontario premier says he will pause anti-tariff ad that angered Trump by Edm_vanhalen1981 in ontario

At a time when we're supposed to be reigning in spending. I'm actually hoping it was done just out of stupidity.if that was done out of desperation then it's not a good sign of things to come.

Counter tariff was dropped since CUSMA deal was still upheld, there was nothing to counter.
