2025年12月12日　渥太华  

加拿大华裔保守联盟（Alliance of Chinese Conservatives, AOCC）对昨日联邦保守党国会议员、代表安省万锦市—Unionville选区的马荣铮（Michael Ma）突然宣布退出保守党、转投执政的联邦自由党深表震惊与强烈谴责。

这一行为不仅是严重背叛选民信任的“倒戈背叛行为”（floor-crossing），更是对加拿大民主政治基本诚信的公然践踏。马荣铮议员于2025年4月联邦大选中，以保守党候选人身份参选，承诺代表保守党价值观与政策纲领，在数以万计华裔及其他社区选民的宝贵选票支持下成功翻转此前由自由党掌控的万锦—Unionville选区。  如今却在议会任期未满一年之际，毫无原则地投向自由党，不仅违背了对选民的庄严承诺，更直接损害了选民意志的代表性。这一事件是过去两个月内第二起保守党议员倒戈投靠自由党的案例，凸显了政治投机主义的泛滥。 

1.  此类投机性倒戈严重破坏加拿大议会民主的稳定性与公信力，让选民对代议制政治产生深刻不信任，尤其在保守党领袖博励治（Pierre Poilievre）即将面临党内领导审查之际，是故意给党内凝聚力的提升制造难题； 

2.  在当前加拿大面临高通胀、高房价、生活成本危机、公共安全恶化等重大挑战之际，这种自私自利的政治投机行为，完全置国家利益与选民福祉于不顾。马荣铮议员声称是“倾听”选区民意而投靠自由党，却忽略了自己当初竞选时承诺“对抗自由党通胀支出，推动降低生活成本”的初衷；  

3.  华裔社区长期以来对保守党在经济自由、降低税负、维护法治、反对歧视性政策等方面抱有高度认同与支持，万锦—Unionville作为华裔人口密集的选区，此次倒戈背叛行为是对广大华裔保守派选民感情的严重伤害，背离了社区对诚信与稳定的期待。 

加拿大华裔保守联盟郑重呼吁：

不同于 Michael Ma 的宣称，AOCC真正到社区倾听了成员的声音。基于广泛收集到的反馈，我们要求他立即辞职，触发补选。

联邦保守党领袖博励治应立即采取最严厉的党内纪律措施，并公开表明绝不姑息任何形式的背叛行为，以强化党内团结；

保守党党团应强化对提名人及候选人的审查机制，并在即将召开的全国代表大会上严肃审议各 EDA 所提交的相关党章修正案，以防止类似事件重演；

全体保守党国会议员应坚守原则、信守承诺，拒绝任何形式的交易与诱惑，维护选民对保守党的信任；

全国选民，特别是华裔社区选民，应在下一次联邦大选中以选票明确表达对政治投机者的惩罚，让“背叛者永远付出政治代价”成为加拿大政坛的新铁律。

华裔加拿大人向来以勤劳、守法、重信诺著称，我们绝不容忍任何践踏民主诚信、背叛选民的政治投机行为！AOCC将密切关注后续发展，并将继续致力于推动华裔社区的声音在保守党内得到充分代表。

Statement of Condemnation by the Alliance of Chinese Conservatives (AOCC)

December 12, 2025 — Ottawa

The Alliance of Chinese Conservatives (AOCC) expresses its profound shock and strong condemnation regarding yesterday’s sudden announcement by federal Conservative MP Michael Ma—representing the riding of Markham–Unionville—that he is leaving the Conservative Party to join the governing Liberal Party.

This conduct is not only a blatant “floor-crossing” betrayal of voter trust, but also a direct affront to the fundamental integrity of Canada’s democratic system. MP Ma was elected in April 2025 as a Conservative candidate, pledging to uphold Conservative values and policy commitments. With the support of tens of thousands of voters—many of whom are from the Chinese Canadian community—he succeeded in flipping Markham–Unionville from Liberal to Conservative.

Now, less than one year into his mandate, he has abandoned his principles and defected to the Liberal Party. This violates the solemn commitments he made to voters and undermines the representative will of his constituents. This also marks the second time in two months that a Conservative MP has crossed the floor to join the Liberals, highlighting a troubling rise in political opportunism.

We wish to emphasize the following:

Such opportunistic defections severely damage the stability and credibility of Canada’s parliamentary democracy, deepening public distrust in the representative system. Amid an upcoming Conservative leadership review for Pierre Poilievre, this act appears intentionally disruptive to internal party unity.

At a time when Canada faces high inflation, soaring housing costs, a cost-of-living crisis, and worsening public safety, this self-serving political maneuver disregards the national interest and voters’ wellbeing. MP Ma now claims he crossed the floor to “listen to constituents,” yet abandoned his original campaign pledge to fight Liberal inflationary spending and reduce Canadians’ living costs.

The Chinese Canadian community has long supported Conservative principles—economic freedom, lower taxes, rule of law, and opposition to discriminatory policies. Markham–Unionville is one of the most Chinese-populated ridings in Canada, and this act of betrayal is a deep insult to Conservative-leaning Chinese voters who value integrity and stability.

The Alliance of Chinese Conservatives (AOCC) hereby calls for:

Contrary to Michael Ma’s claims, the AOCC has been actually speaking to community members. Based on overwhelming feedback, we call on him to resign immediately and trigger a by-election.

Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre to impose the strongest internal disciplinary measures and publicly affirm that betrayal of voters will never be tolerated, thereby reinforcing party unity.

The Conservative caucus to strengthen vetting procedures for nomination contestants and candidates, and for the upcoming national convention to seriously consider proposed constitutional amendments submitted by EDAs to prevent such incidents from occurring again.

All Conservative MPs to uphold principle and integrity, honour their commitments, and reject any transactional politics or inducements that compromise the trust placed in them by voters.

Voters across Canada—especially within the Chinese Canadian community—to make their voices heard in the next federal election by decisively rejecting political opportunists, ensuring that “betrayers always pay a political price” becomes a new norm in Canadian politics.

Chinese Canadians have long been known for diligence, respect for the law, and honouring commitments. We will not tolerate political opportunism that betrays voters and undermines democratic integrity.

The AOCC will continue to monitor developments closely and will remain committed to ensuring that the voice of the Chinese Canadian community is fully represented within the Conservative Party.
