Canada’s political landscape just took a strange turn. In this episode of Politics Is Broken, we break down the wave of floor crossings that has pushed the Liberals to within one seat of a majority government — without an election. Are MPs switching sides out of principle… or pure political survival? We dig into: • The recent Conservative → Liberal defections • Why Marilyn Gladu’s move is causing backlash • Whether Mark Carney is playing 4D chess… or making a risky mistake • Why majority governments might be more dangerous than they seem • And what this all says about the state of Canadian politics right now Plus… A little Trump-induced global anxiety, ketchup chips diplomacy, and why Canadian politics increasingly feels like a group project where nobody trusts each other.
