It's difficult finding a comparison since the US only has a two-party system.

Maybe an example something like Ralph Nader suggesting something and Nixon doing it.

Or more modern George W Bush following the advice of Jon Stewart.

Anyway (the far?) right agreeing with the left is odd.

Not particularly far to the right.

Setting aside the Quebec-only Bloc, the three main parties in Canada are center-right, centrist, and center-left. They all like to claim the others are extremists, but all of them have perfectly mainstream views.

There's another party! And yeah, she's pretty centrist too.
Except for that whole "wifi is going to irradiate us" stance.
