Indeed. At least Layton has the advantage of most of his previous caucus being re-elected (I think they only lost two previously-held ridings and had one incumbent not run), so the really green newcomers can be kept out of the spotlight.
When Reform went to Ottawa, they were pretty much all new MPs.
