New Democrats Would Put An End To Crossing The Floor





Crossing the floor of the legislature would be a thing of the past if the NDP win the election on the 27th.

The Party says MLAs elected under a party banner should serve under that banner and legislation would be put in place to prohibit MLAs from sitting as members of any party caucus other than the one for which they were elected.
An MLA who leaves their party would have two choices: to sit as an independent until the next election, or resign and run under their new party in a by-election.
