As disappointed as I am to see what little remains of the NDP further erode towards a 2 party system, I completely understand why she would switch.
Rebuilding the NDP starts with setting direction via the leadership election. I think both frontrunners offer visions that would prove popular with a significant portion of Canadians. For now it's Carney's vision that dominates the conversation and it's proving popular in the absence of a better one, while keeping whatever the fuck PP's selling on the shelf.
Why do say that? Did they Jennica Atwin her?
Given the history of people who cross getting relected I wouldn't be surprised if some of those Conservatives show up on the board of companies associated to Carney.
For Idlout her unique geographic(Nunavut) position and with the current Artic/Military spending she could see some seat winning funds going to her riding.
And this is also proves my response a few days ago regarding the NDP.
Holy cow the debate was brutal. Its like 5 of the worst candidates they could find. I was actually excited when Jagmeet stepped down, now I feel like nobody with a brain wants to join them.
The French debate was even worse, apparently
What sort of candidate were you hoping for?
A pro labor type with a brain, who doesn't resort to low brow talking points like government run grocery stores and greedflation. I liked Mulcair a lot, though mainly after he left politics, back when elbowgate was the dumbest things the NDP said.
What was it about Mulcair that you like? He always seemed very Liberal to me and never proposed policy that seemed very pro labour (e.g. balance the budget in one year). I can tell you aren't a fan of Avi Lewis, but all the candidates are more pro labour than Mulcair and IMO have proposed better policy than him.
