So Carney needs to find 3 defectors

It's probably better optics for him right now just to pick a piece of legislation and go find 3 votes for/with it. His support was partially jacked from the NDP and BQ, so voters partial to either will likely look well upon him crafting legislation supported by either/both...and if the CPC are going to be anything other than obstructionist jerk offs, it wouldn't suck to work with them on smoothing out provincial trade barriers, energy infrastructure, etc.

I don't think selling out for a majority is the way here. I might be naive though.

I honestly think the play for Carney here is to earnestly attempt to roll out the platform you got elected to roll out and force motherfuckers to obstruct you, then call the obstructors out for it.

I don't think anyone is going to have the stones to get in the way of him for at least 12 months. Go hard in the paint immediately and just get shit done.

Agreed, ride the momentum and do as much as possible as quickly as possible. All the good will, no party wants to be obstructionist this early. So what trump did kinda,. except not evil.
 
Pee-Pee is leaving nothing to chance in his upcoming by-election. Crowfoot-Battle River is one of the redneckiest ridings in Alberta. The guy who's stepping down won his seat with over 82% of the vote.

A majority created by a floor crossing can also be ended by a floor crossing
 
Libs are back up to 169 seats.

After the validation process, Milton East-Halton Hills in Ontario flipped from a CPC win by a margin of 298 votes to a Liberal win by a razor-thin margin of 29 votes.
