An Open Letter to the Five Members of Parliament Who Crossed the Floor. 🔥💯 “To the Members of Parliament who chose to abandon the voters who elected you, There are moments in public life that define a person—not by what they say, but by what they do. Your decision to cross the floor mid-mandate is one of those moments. And it will follow you. You did not earn your seat under the banner you now carry. You did not campaign on the platform you now support. Canadians placed their trust in you based on clear promises, clear affiliations, and clear values. That trust was not yours to trade, reassign, or surrender once it became politically convenient. Switching jerseys in the middle of the game is not strategy. It is betrayal. And it is not a small one. Every single vote that put you into office came from a Canadian who believed you stood for something specific. They believed their voice mattered. They believed you would carry that voice into Parliament with integrity. Instead, you took that mandate and handed it to a government those same voters did not choose to empower. That is not representation. That is a reversal of consent. You may justify your actions however you like—strategy, stability, national interest—but none of those explanations change the fundamental truth: you were not elected to do this. If your convictions truly changed, the honourable path was obvious—step down, face your constituents again, and ask for their permission. You didn’t. Instead, you chose the path that benefited you while silencing the people who trusted you. And here is the part that cannot be avoided: Every day you look in the mirror, you are looking at the face of that decision. The face tied to every vote that put you where you are—and every voter who was left behind when you walked away from them. You may gain position, influence, even reward. But none of that changes what this is. Because of your actions, a government now holds power it did not win at the ballot box. A majority carries enormous weight—over the economy, over policy, over the everyday lives of Canadians. That power was not freely granted. It was assembled through your defection. And the cost will not be yours to bear. It will be carried by hard- working Canadians—by families already stretched thin, by small businesses trying to survive, by people who now feel their vote can be taken and repurposed without their consent. That is a dangerous precedent. Because when people begin to believe their vote no longer truly matters, the damage goes far beyond one decision, one Parliament, or one government. It cuts at the foundation of trust itself. Canadians deserved better than this. They deserved representatives who either stood by their word—or had the integrity to return to the people and seek a renewed mandate when that word changed. You chose something else. And Canadians will remember, history books will remember……your name. Sincerely an ordinary Canadian , Stephanie La Porta West Vancouver BC”

Trump says his 25 percent tariffs on all Canadian and Mexican goods will begin next week. Reminder: tariffs aren't paid by other countries. They're eventually paid by us at the checkout line.
