‘Felt like a frat house’: Canada MP says Pierre Poilievre’s party not serious; he was yelled at, called ‘snake’


'Felt like a frat house': Canada MP says Pierre Poilievre's party not serious; he was yelled at, called 'snake'
Pierre Poilievre’s party may see more defections to the Liberal Party in a few days.

Nova Scotia MP Chris d’Entremont who recently crossed the floor of the House of Commons to the Liberals said that he felt on several occasions that he was not part of a serious political party but of a frat house. The former Conservative leader slammed the conduct of the leaders of Pierre Poilievre’s party and said he crossed over to Mark Carney’s party without any promise of any cabinet post.After it was speculated that d’Entremont was mulling a switch, two Conservative leaders barged into his office, pushed open the door, almost knocking down his assistant, and yelled at him about “how much a snake” he was. The Nova Scotia MP said he believed “three or four” other Conservative caucus members were considering crossing the floor — all disgruntled by Poilievre’s leadership style. The Conservative Party denied d’Entremont’s account and said he established himself as a liar. On the specific incident of barfing into the office, the party said when d’Entremont’s assistant opened the door, the door was open wide enough to come through so they calmly entered into the reception area and there was no “barging”. On the allegation that he was called a snake, the party said that he was told that his actions would not be seen as noble, and that “deep down he would know that turning his back on friends and the people who elected him are the actions of a ‘snake.'”

Conservative MP Matt Jeneroux resigns

In another blow to Poilievre’s party, Conservative MP Matt Jeneroux announced his resignation from the House of Commons. “For those who have reached out, I am deeply grateful for your friendship and concern. However, I ask that you please not attempt to contact my family during this time,” the Alberta MP said in his statement.“I ran in the last election hopeful that Canadians would put their faith in a team led by Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives, offering a chance to change Canada’s perception in our own country and around the world. I wanted desperately to play a role in that vision.”“Although the outcome was not what I anticipated, I have great admiration for the many remarkable individuals who were elected to the House of Commons — on both sides of the aisle — who continue to dedicate themselves to the betterment of our nation. Their work gives me faith that the momentum toward a stronger and more unified Canada endures,” he wrote.
