The voters chose a minority government and expected the parties to work together, and I don’t think it’s right for Carney and his team to try to undermine that,” said Kofman. “But then I think of Poilievre’s stupid little face being told about one floor crossing after another and I giggle for about 10 minutes.”

But also:

Kofman went on to acknowledge his concerns that a Carney Liberal majority could force through a Western pipeline without any environmental or Indigenous consultation, before dissolving back into giggles picturing Pierre Poilievre’s sad face becoming a popular reaction gif used to denote “whiny pouting” across the internet.

    Yeah this is the only part of the reaction that I’m not aligned with.

    As you’ve mentioned the MP is elected as your representative, regardless of party, but a lot of people tend to vote with the understanding that their representative will tow the party line.

      I expect my MP to have a brain in their heads who can make decisions that benefit their constituents. While i appreciate what a party can do for organization, if that party stops acting in the benefit of it’s constituents then fuck that party. Let’s be realistic, most Canadians are too smart for the kind of indoctrination that exists to the south of us. That guy crossed the floor because pp smol doesn’t have the moral character, intelligence, experience, or vision to lead his party let alone Canada.
