The record holds one affiliation change for Marilyn Gladu (born 1962), in the House of Commons. On April 8, 2026 the recorded affiliation changes from the Conservative Party of Canada to the Liberal Party of Canada. The record attaches the riding of Sarnia—Lambton—Bkejwanong to this change. The event record cites eight sources, at least one of them a primary official record. This entry records the affiliation and its date. It does not record why the change was made, and nothing here should be read as a statement of motive. Tables carried over from the project’s earlier model also hold four election results for Marilyn Gladu; they are linked to the changes above by nothing stronger than the person. This paragraph was assembled by machine from the rows named in it, and is pending review.

Assumptions: Machine-assembled from this database’s own rows and from no other source. The text restates, as sentences, the participant rows attached to this record: the affiliation recorded on either side of each change, the date at the precision that row carries, the jurisdiction and chamber, whether the change is filed under a group event, and whether the event record behind it carries a citation. No date is printed finer than the row’s date_precision, so a year-precision row yields a year and never a day. Both languages are composed from the same rows rather than translated from one another. No motive, benefit, causation or characterisation of a person appears, and none may be added under this claim.
Counterarguments: Two limits, stated rather than glossed. First, the prose is only as sound as the rows beneath it: where a party link is wrong the wrong party name is printed, and where an event is a legacy lead the sentence repeats an unverified lead — saying so, but repeating it. Second, restating a thin record fluently can make it read as established; the pending status on this claim, and the sentence inside the text naming the evidence state, are the only things that say otherwise. Four label-to-party mappings were deliberately not printed, because the party row’s name did not exist on the date of the event; the underlying links were left untouched and are still visible on the record.
