Conservatives lose a 4th MP to Carney. Is Poilievre in trouble?

from Power & Politics

Former Conservative MP Marilyn Gladu became the latest to cross the floor to the Liberals on Thursday, putting the Carney government in position to secure a majority with just one of three byelection wins next week. Liberal Party caucus chair James Maloney responds to Gladu's socially Conservative views and past controversies like downplaying the COVID-19 pandemic, and says 'the bigger the tent the better.' Plus, former Canadian top soldier Tom Lawson accuses the U.S. president of 'gaslighting' with his threats to destroy Iran, and saying the U.S. is presenting the ceasefire terms differently than they were negotiated because 'the Americans see this as their way out.'
