MP Eve Adams shocked political Ottawa on Monday morning when she walked into the National Press Theatre with Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau and announced she was leaving the Conservative Party.

Not to be outdone, her former boss, Stephen Harper, grabbed headlines with a shuffle of key ministers not one hour later.

And is Ottawa-area MP Pierre Poilievre ready to handle Kenney's old Employment and Social Development duties along with his existing democratic reform role and responsibility for the National Capital Commission?
