Show Notes

Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer discuss Conservative MP Matt Jeneroux crossing the floor to the Liberal Party, which brings Carney within three seats of a majority government. They examine whether upcoming byelections could deliver Carney a majority without a general election, the political implications of governing with a narrow majority versus a larger mandate, and Pierre Poilievre's weakened position. They then explore Carney's ruthless political pragmatism, the legitimacy of floor crossings in parliamentary democracy, and the Conservative Party's diminished standing.
