If there’s a will, there is a way. John Rustad passed his leadership review and, when cracks in the caucus started to show, argued the B.C. Conservative Party’s constitution supported his continued role as leader. He fought it but in the end he did resign. If the CPC wanted PP gone, he’d be gone.

I didn’t say whether I favoured a majority, I just said it’s not weird to see MPs cross the floor. It’s happened under other governments and it will happen again.

It’s not really “weird” though is it? The hardest floor-crossings have now happened. The next one(s) change(s) everything: to a majority, to a 4 year term, to holding majorities on committees, to actually being able to get stuff done.

I think the prospect of being the MP to form a majority government is the key point.

“This characteristic, ingrained in their DNA, explains, among other things, why the Liberals have been in power more often in Canada than their Conservative opponents. At the federal ballot box, chameleons are popular.” 2/2
