Chris d'Entremont's floor crossing met with mix of admiration, admonition at home in N.S.
Defection of 'staunch Conservative' came as a surprise to constituents, friends
Reaction to MP Chris d'Entremont's move from the Conservative Party to the governing Liberals is making waves back home in Nova Scotia, with some fully supporting his decision and others saying he misrepresented his intentions to voters.
D'Entremont, the representative for Acadie-Annapolis, told reporters Wednesday he left the Conservative caucus because he no longer felt represented in leader Pierre Poilievre's party.
"That does not surprise me," Linda Gregory, warden of the Municipality of the District of Digby, told CBC News on Wednesday. "I think of Poilievre as a right-winger. I personally would run too."
Still, Gregory — whose municipality falls within d'Entremont's southwest Nova Scotia riding — said the longtime politician's switch was unexpected because he's always been known as a "staunch Conservative."
"But he's also got a lot of integrity. He's also a very caring person, caring about his community, caring about what's best. And to me, when he walked across the floor, he made a decision that was very heart-wrenching for him to make the best choice for our community," Gregory said.
D'Entremont was first elected to the Nova Scotia Legislature in 2003 as a Progressive Conservative. He was re-elected four times and held multiple cabinet positions before eyeing the federal seat of West Nova, now Acadie-Annapolis. He became the only non-Liberal MP elected in Nova Scotia in the 2019 federal election.
Gregory said she hopes having d'Entremont in the Liberal caucus will lead to action on important local issues, including the twinning of Highway 101.
"We need the feds on side with the province to get this done," said the warden.
'Maybe it's a good thing, maybe it's a bad thing'
John Cunningham, the warden for the Municipality of the District of Yarmouth, said he was surprised by Tuesday's floor crossing and that the people he's spoken to have mixed feelings.
Cunningham, who once ran unsuccessfully for the provincial Progressive Conservatives, said he's not sure how d'Entremont's decision will impact his municipality, where the top issues include fisheries, infrastructure and tourism.
"I've yet to speak with him on how our priorities are going to be brought forth to the government, so maybe it's a good thing, maybe it's a bad thing. Until I speak with him, I have no idea," Cunningham told CBC News, adding that he had already reached out to d'Entremont in a text message.
'It's not about the party, it's about leadership'
Pam Mood, mayor of the Town of Yarmouth, said d'Entremont is a friend and she supports his decision.
"I think it was a good move, obviously. He knows what the community needs," said Mood, who briefly pursued the federal Liberal nomination in West Nova in 2019. "It's not about the party, it's about leadership."
Mood said there would be "better opportunity" to secure federal funding for projects with an MP on the government side.
"When you've got things aligned, it's much better," she said.
Constituents' reaction mixed
Some 189 kilometres away, constituents in Kingston, N.S., were divided.
"It's upsetting," said Steve Mosher. "I supported Chris in the last election under Pierre Poilievre's leadership, as did my wife. So we were both kind of upset to see it happen, honestly."
Len Gregory said he was glad d'Entremont switched to the Liberal caucus, giving the MP credit for taking "his time to think about the things that he wanted, and he felt that we wanted."
Another constituent, Fred Huntley, said he was "kind of neutral on it."
"Not worried," said Huntley. "He's done a lot of good for us."
Sense of betrayal
Rob Batherson, the former president of the Conservative Party of Canada, said d'Entremont betrayed his voters.
He said d'Entremont's decision leaves Nova Scotia with a "Liberal monopoly."
"I stood on a wharf in West Dover with Chris d'Entremont and [former Tory MP] Rick Perkins and others with fishermen during the federal election where we promised them we would fight for them, and Chris has walked away from that fight," Batherson told CBC News in an interview on Wednesday.
Former Conservative Party president says floor crossing a betrayalKevin Surette, a Conservative insider who has been part of nearly all of d'Entremont's campaigns, said it wouldn't have been an easy decision to leave caucus.
"Chris has been a close personal friend for a long time — I knew Chris well before politics, and I will continue to call him a friend long after he leaves politics," Surette told CBC News in an email.
"I know that, in making this decision, he would have been weighing what he fundamentally, deep down believes is right for his constituents and for Canada, despite the personal consequences for him."
Why move was shocking
Alex Marland, a Canadian politics professor at Acadia University in Wolfville, N.S., said d'Entremont's move was surprising given the timing — announcing it at the same time as the federal budget.
"Crossing the floor is such a polarizing, upsetting thing that it would be more likely that we'd see people sitting as Independents to express their discontent. As an Independent, you can still vote with the government," Marland said.
"It is far more shocking to me that you saw Chris d'Entremont cross the floor directly from the Conservatives right over into the Liberals."
Marland said in his research, the No. 1 reason for crossing the floor is unhappiness with leadership.
With d'Entremont gone, there are no longer any Nova Scotia Conservatives in caucus.
Marland said the Conservative Party will have to do more to better align itself with the Atlantic region.

In damage control after 2 departures, Conservatives accuse Liberals of 'undemocratic' distractions
Scheer says Carney trying 'to cobble together a majority'
Conservative House leader Andrew Scheer held a brief media availability Friday morning in an attempt to redirect attention from the Official Opposition's internal crisis to the Liberal Party.
Instead, the senior Conservative was pelted with questions about Edmonton Riverbend MP Matt Jeneroux’s surprise decision to quit federal politics six months after an election. The move came two days after former Conservative MP Chris d'Entremont defected to the Liberals.
According to a senior Liberal source, Jeneroux met with Prime Minister Mark Carney this week.
“I guarantee you if you stop 100 people on any street in this country they are not interested in palace intrigue,” said Scheer, not long before walking off-mic after four minutes of questions.
Resigning Conservative MP is victim of Liberal 'pressure tactics,' Scheer says“We're not going to let Liberal sources distract from the budget.”
Political circles have very much been sent into a frenzy about what’s going on inside the Conservative Party and what shifting support could mean for Carney’s government to get bills, like the budget, passed through Parliament.
Budget week is usually a communications gold mine for opposition parties — especially when the government’s spending plan includes a $78-billion deficit. But the Conservatives have been knocked off message.
- Cross Country Checkup is asking: Is there anything wrong with floor crossing? How important is party loyalty to you? Leave your comment here and we may read it or call you back for our show this Sunday.
The same night Jeneroux announced he was leaving, the Conservatives’ first attempt to bring down Carney’s budget (through an amendment confidence vote) failed. A handful of Conservatives abstained.
Leader Pierre Poilievre has not held any public news conferences or scrummed with reporters and is now facing questions about his leadership and influence over his caucus.
At Issue | Is Pierre Poilievre’s leadership in trouble?After crossing the floor, d'Entremont said he was disaffected with Poilievre's leadership style and that some of his former caucus mates "are in the same boat.”
Conservative sources said Jeneroux was under pressure to stay on from some in the party. But in a statement Thursday, Jeneroux said coercion played no role in his decision.
Scheer accuses Carney of being 'undemocratic'
Former Conservative campaign manager Jenni Byrne, who is still an adviser to the party, has been involved in the party's efforts to quash possible floor-crossings, the sources said.
Scheer accused the Liberals of being the ones harassing Conservatives, speeding up Jeneroux’s decision to leave.
“The only rumours I've heard of intimidation and harassment are from Liberals badgering Conservatives in elevators and calling them at home,” Scheer said.
“All of this is an attempt to distract from Mark Carney's first budget, a terrible budget that is almost universally panned."
Asked whether Jeneroux can stay in Conservative caucus given his meeting with Carney, Scheer said he does “not take unnamed Liberal sources at their word.”
“Mark Carney did not receive a majority mandate from Canadian voters. Yet he's trying to cobble together a majority through undemocratic means with backroom deals and pressure tactics,” Scheer said.
There are no rules preventing floor-crossing in Canada, although it is a deeply divisive issue. The Parliament of Canada Act makes no mention of it and the House of Commons Procedure and Practice guide notes that “members are not obliged to retain that party label during the whole of their mandate.”
Scheer accuses Liberals of taking 'undemocratic' actions to get a majorityIn the early 2000s the federal ethics commissioner, Bernard Shapiro, cleared David Emerson, who jumped to the Conservatives just two weeks after winning his B.C. riding as a Liberal. Shapiro found no wrongdoing, but did urge Parliament to debate the ethics of floor-crossing.
“Fairly or unfairly, this particular instance has given many citizens a sense that their vote — the cornerstone of our democratic system — was somehow devalued, if not betrayed,” he wrote.
Both Liberals and Conservatives have enjoyed, and decried, when MPs switch affiliations.
In 2018, when he was the party's leader, Scheer posed with Leona Alleslev after she jumped from the Liberals to join the Conservative benches, calling out Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s leadership along the way.
Carney's post-budget tour took him to the Canadian Club in Toronto on Friday, where he was asked how many more seats he needed for a majority.
"Just a couple. So call your local MP if they're not a Liberal," he told the business-oriented crowd.
Tuesday's budget shows a deficit of roughly $78 billion. It includes some $141 billion in new spending over the next five years, which will partially be offset by some $51.2 billion in cuts or a total of $60 billion in cuts and "savings."
