this hasn't happened in canada for a few decades.
but, we have a parliamentary system. what that means is that sitting ndp mps could theoretically leave the party and start a new one, or perhaps join the greens.
the party got hijacked, and this guy...i don't know, give him some time, maybe, but i don't think he's workable: outside of parliament, not certain to get in and probably more likely to become a long term joke than prime minister.
the ndp might not have a serious future, after this, anyways.
it should be contemplated.
