Ontario MP Marilyn Gladu has left the Conservative caucus to join Prime Minister Mark Carney's Liberals, pushing them closer to a majority government.
In a statement posted on social media Wednesday morning, Gladu said she has heard clearly from her constituents that they want "serious leadership and a real plan" to build the country.
"I have made a choice to do the best thing for our community’s priorities, and importantly, for our country," she said.
