80. Does that happen in Canada as well?

Ha.

At the moment, the new leader of the federal NDP is a former Liberal cabinet minister in Quebec, and the presumptive leader of the federal Liberal Party (formal coronation not yet held) is the former NDP Premier of Ontario.

The Liberal government in Quebec in which the present federal NDP leader was a minister is led by the provincial Premier who was formerly a federal Progressive Conservative cabinet minister.

And pretty much any retired prominent politician in Canada, of every stripe, ends up on the board of directors of Magna Inc. ... whose CEO until recently (she seems to have departed) was the founder's daughter, who was elected as a Conservative MP and crossed the floor to become a member of the Liberal cabinet.

We may actually have you beat!
