Marilyn Gladu defected from the Conservative Party of Canada on November 11, 2026. Gladu stated that federal funding appears to be coming for the $5.9 million Bright's Grove library hub project, which is listed as one of 35 projects in the 2026 federal budget's Build Communities Strong Fund. The expansion to Faethorne House began this fall and is expected to continue through most of 2027.

Gladu has been advocating for this project since crossing the floor to the governing Liberals from the Conservative Party of Canada earlier this year. The funding represents a significant investment in local infrastructure, following a previous promise of $4.5 million that did not materialize.
