With the legislature resuming today questions remain as to whether Green Party Leader Mike Schreiner will cross the floor to join the Ontario Liberal Party, a move that would position him as a contender in their leadership race.
, the Green Party leader asked residents to give him “time to think about their arguments.” He said he wanted to talk to his constituents and get more feedback before making a decision. He also reiterated that he remains focused on representing those constituents and “working with people in the fight to protect the Greenbelt.”
Schreiner has been mum on the topic since. Neither Schreiner nor his representative returned a request for comment about whether he will cross the floor or if interim Green Party leaders were being interviewed. Interim Liberal Leader John Fraser also wouldn’t weigh in on whether Schreiner may swap party affiliations.
"Ontario Liberals are focused on gearing up for our largest annual meeting in 20 years. As the party's interim leader, I am neutral in the race and will not make comments directed towards individuals who are running for the party's Leadership, or those who may be considering whether to enter the race."
The provincial Liberals have been without a permanent leader since June 2022. The party has said it won’t rush to select a leader. At the annual general meeting, members are expected to vote on the rules for the leadership race.
