Second Conservative MP Departure Sparks Questions Over Party Stability

                 Conservative MP Matt Jeneroux was first elected to the House of Commons in 2015. 

Conservative MP Matt Jeneroux has announced his resignation from Parliament, becoming the second member to leave the Conservative caucus this week. Jeneroux, who represented Edmonton Riverbend, described the decision as difficult but ultimately the right one.

His departure follows closely after Nova Scotia MP Chris d’Entremont’s exit, intensifying speculation about internal divisions within the party.

Jeneroux, first elected in 2015, expressed gratitude to his constituents and colleagues, while Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre thanked him for his decade of service. Jeneroux plans to step down formally next spring.

With two MPs leaving in quick succession, questions are being raised about the party’s cohesion and leadership strategy heading into the new year.
