Conservative MP quits caucus two days after another MP crosses the floor
Matt Jeneroux resigns amid political shifts after Nova Scotia MP Chris d'Entremont joined Liberals, marking two Conservative caucus departures in days.
- On Thursday, Alberta Conservative MP Matt Jeneroux confirmed he is resigning as a member of Parliament, following Nova Scotia MP Chris d'Entremont's floor crossing to the Liberals on Tuesday.
- On Wednesday, Jeneroux's office denied rumours of crossing the floor and stated he ran to support Pierre Poilievre's Conservative team.
- First elected in 2015, Matt Jeneroux has represented Edmonton Riverbend, saying the decision was difficult and his focus must now turn to Jeneroux's family as he hopes to address the House of Commons one final time.
- Crossing the floor on Tuesday, Chris d'Entremont's move left the governing party two seats shy of a majority, while Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre said Jeneroux plans to step down next spring and thanked him for a decade of service.
- Quebec MP Gerard Deltell called d'Entremont's departure isolated, Jacques Gourde said he couldn't guarantee no further exits, and The Canadian Press first published the breaking report Nov. 6, 2025.
