IndependentToBloc QuébécoisFrom the crossbenchWhere the seat went: The member left the crossbench for a partyThe return leg: a member sitting outside every caucus joins one. Sometimes the caucus they had left, sometimes another.What you may rely onThat the member ended in a caucus. Whether a general election fell between the departure and this return is the question that separates two very different sequences, and it is answered per leg by `independent_return_intervals`, not by this badge.How it countsCounted toward neither total. The outbound leg of the same episode is already counted as a departure to the crossbench, and adding this one would count a single person twice for one episode.
Marked as a label rather than a party: the database has no party row for this side of the transition. Overwhelmingly this means the member sat as an Independent, and there is deliberately no “Independent” party.

  The House of Commons records Simon-Pierre Savard-Tremblay resigning his seat on June 19, 2026, the same day his affiliation returned to the Bloc Québécois. The sequence does not establish causation.

How rare is this?

2 recorded transitions match leaving Independent, joining Bloc Québécois and at the federal level, across 2 events and 2 named people (Crossing the Floor Database, release 2026-08-01.1, consulted September 2, 2026). The most recent is François Gérin, September 26, 1991 — the 2nd on record. The earliest on record is Gilles Duceppe, December 19, 1990.

0 of the 2 meet the database's publication standard; the other 2 are unreviewed leads.
None of the 2 carries any recorded outcome after the transition: no re-election or appointment rate can be quoted from this set.
Withdrawn records are excluded from this set.
No senator appears in this count: we hold Senate events, but none has passed the publication gate.
