Another Conservative MP crosses floor

MP Michael Ma has left the Conservative Party to join the Liberals.

Ma, the Member of Parliament for Markham–Unionville, was elected in the April 2025 federal election.

In a statement, Ma said in part, "I have concluded that Prime Minister Mark Carney is offering the steady, practical approach we need to deliver on the priorities I hear every day while door knocking in Markham–Unionville. That includes making life more affordable, growing a strong Canadian economy, strengthening community safety, and creating real opportunities for young people and families who are working hard to build their Canadian dream."

The Liberal Party is now one seat shy of a majority government.
