[The Globe and Mail: Stronach crosses floor to join Liberal cabinet](http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/story/RTGAM.20050517.wpmpm05417/BNStory/Front/?ref=dashhouse.com):

> In an explosive development leading up to Thursday’s dramatic budget vote, Conservative MP Belinda Stronach has crossed the floor to join the Liberal Party as the new Human Resources Development Minister.

Stunning news! Enquiring minds want to know: is Stronach still dating Conservative Peter MacKay?

Whatever your political bent, it’s hard not to be disillusioned sometimes.
