tuck luck yuck

So four CPC members crossed the floor to join the LPC in the last six months, an NDP MP did the same thing. Yesterday were byelections in three ridings that the LPC swept, giving them a majority in parliament.

Accruing floor crossers to flip from a minority parliament to a majority parliament has never happened before in Canada's history. So for those of us who are both aware of the world beyond our home and nuclear family, and for those of us paying attention to Canadian federal politics, we have experienced a moment in history.

I personally am glad that the Mark Carney government has achieved a majority, hopefully soon the LPC will reshuffle the committees so that it represents a majority. In this way the repetitivte obfuscation that the CPC has been inserting into committee meetings can be curtailed to allow for new policies and regulations to be passed more quickly, so that more can be done to push Canada forward.

In particular I hope the MPO can accelerate many of their projects now that the opposition has been reduced.
