This presents a rather odd situation for the Canadian house. This has happened before in American politics as well. Anyone remember which side of the senate John McCain used to sit on? Thats right, he was a democrat. He is now a republican and has more friends and allies from both sides and from the people than any one senator I can think of. I wonder if this man will attempt to do the same, if he can, he will have more influence than he did before. This is either a career killer, or a career maker, there wont be much in between.
