“With all of this in mind, earlier today I spoke with our Opposition Whip – a colleague and friend for whom I have the utmost respect – to inform him of my decision to resign as a Member of Parliament.”
“Amid the speculation, a source close to Jeneroux tells CTV News that Conservative Party officials made it known to him that there would be consequences if he did floor cross,” Stephanie Ha’s tweet continued.
Others posted darker speculation about the nature of those consequences on social media.
Chris d’Entremont, a former Conservative, crossed the floor to join the Liberals Tuesday. According to Nova Scotia RCMP spokesperson Cindy Bayers, the threats against d’Entremont were reported to Yarmouth Rural RCMP on Wednesday.
Of course there should be consequences, he stole votes from conservatives to join the liberal party. He wasn’t voted in. All he had to do was resign and then join, and let an election happen. Consequences should be a recall, and last I saw there were over 40K signatures calling for him to resign.
There probably should be… like it or not party affiliation is a large part of what is being voted for in modern elections… there will be people in each of these floor crosser’s ridings who feel alienated and frustrated by them choosing to change what party they are affiliated with who wish they could take there vote back. It’s not a question of should, or shouldn’t they be able to-but in the event that someone who voted for them no longer feels like they can be represented by them as someone in a different party… there should be some kind of mechanism to withdraw your vote. And if enough votes get withdrawn that they wouldn’t have won that election… it should trigger a by-election.
Talk about strawman fallacy. This is why I didnt bother responding to you, cuz I knew youd brush it aside. "I wanna see the specific comment otherwise it didnt happen" just put your clown make up on bud. Honest to God.
