The Liberal government has secured five floor crossers in recent months, four from the Conservatives and one from the NDP, when Nunavut MP Lori Idlout crossed last month.
Gladu has represented the riding of Sarnia—Lambton–Bkejwanong since 2015 and she won her seat handily in the 2025 election with 53.1 per cent of the popular vote. Gladu also ran for leadership of the Conservatives back in 2020.
She was also a strong supporter of Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre’s leadership in 2022, having served as the Ontario co-chair for his campaign.
Speaking on background, a Conservative MP said Gladu’s defection from the party is “shocking” and has left the caucus stunned. They noted she was “one of the most anti-Liberal, anti-Mark Carney members of the caucus.”
As examples of her political stance, Conservative MPs pointed to Gladu’s record of opposing COVID-19 mandates, being opposed to abortion and mounting a fierce opposition to the Liberals latest’ anti-hate bill, C-9.
