Ottawa Now - A floor-crossing and a sudden resignation highlight a rough week for Canada's Conservatives

November 10, 2025

It’s been a wild and crazy 7 days for Canada’s Conservatives. It started with a Tory MP crossing the floor to join the Carney Liberals. Days later, another Conservative MP stepped aside from the party, and the political arena altogether. And then, we have what happened on Sunday, as the newly-turned-Liberal MP Chris D’Entremont gave his first TV interview since the defection. During a conversation with CBC’s Rosemary Barton, he claims that party members barged into his office and yelled at him when they heard rumblings of his pending departure. The Tories claim the opposite – a calm meeting with their now-former colleague. Barry J. McLoughlin is the President of Transformational Leadership Consultants. He joins Kristy Cameron on today’s Ottawa Now.
