Dude! Belinda Stronach crossed the floor and joined the Liberal cabinet.

!!!

And yes, the whole article is interesting, and then there's this tidbit at the end:

Pressed on how her decision will affect her romantic relationship with Central Nova MP Peter MacKay, the deputy leader of the Conservatives, Stronach called that a "personal matter" that she did not intend to comment upon.

Oh dear.

"Romantic relationship"!?! How long has this been going on. I must read the Canadian news more often.

I think it started over a year ago.

Weren't they both running for the Conservative leadership at one point?

What do you mean 'Weren't they both running for the Conservative leadership at one point'!? That is the point! (well one of them)

Didn't they get together right after the leadership race? That's more my point here.

(I'm using my boykissing icon in an ironic fashion while talking about two conservatives getting it on, even if Stronach (apparently) supports teh gay rights. It's what I've heard, I'd need to look at her statements.)
