Nova Scotia MP Chris D’Entremont out of Tory caucus

Chris D’Entremont left the Conservative caucus after failing to secure support for Speaker and now joins Liberals, moving them closer to a majority government by two seats.

  • On Nov. 4, 2025, Nova Scotia MP Chris D'Entremont resigned from the Conservative caucus, and a government source told The Canadian Press he will join the Liberal caucus.
  • D'Entremont told Politico that he was considering crossing to the Liberals and would decide after reading the budget, after lacking Conservative caucus support for his Speaker of the House of Commons contest earlier this year.
  • A longtime provincial and federal politician, Chris D'Entremont, MP since 2019, was first elected after 16 years as a Nova Scotia Progressive Conservative MLA.
  • The shift changes the Commons math, leaving the Liberals one seat shy of a majority, and Melissa Lantsman said D'Entremont `made his choice`.
  • Other parties signaled interest while his plans remain unclear as Green Party Leader Elizabeth May said Chris D'Entremont, Nova Scotia MP, would be welcome in the Green caucus, but he has not told The Canadian Press whether he plans to join the government.
