Well, there are plenty of others to choose from (Conservative, Green, NDP), pick the one that best represents your views and go for it!

Nobody says you *have* to support one federal party in "sickness and in health"...

In fact, I daresay our democracy would be a lot healthier if people did think of party support one election at a time. Would force us to actually think before voting.

Talk to the hand.

Still, enough talent left from within and without their current MPs. Without McKenna, a wide open race could serve the party quite well. Get those policy juices flowing instead of internal politicking...hopefully.
