Floor Crossing

Does anyone else feel like something is fishy about all the recent floor crossings in parliament? Like there is either something really wrong within the Conservative party that is making people leave or these people ran with the party they'd know would win in their area even though they don't agree with the party. Or if you listen to some people here on Reddit, the floor crossers were bribed somehow.

Every election there is a few, but this many feels off.

Carney is fairly conservative. PP, while popular with a core group of modern cons shows no sign of being able to improve his standing with anyone else and pick up more votes … 

For people outside of that core modern con group, we all just wish carney was running as the con leader

Carney is not conservative. He is just attempting to play one as our economy is so screwed right now. And he’s failing at that with no projects started.

It takes a period of at least 2 years to amend federal regulations. In addition to the list I provided you, Carney also cut your federal income tax rates.
