Polls suggest Mark Carney is reshaping the electoral landscape

Because the polling looks best for him, most likely.

Yeah but he has to get an mp spot somewhere i thought.

Nope, there’s no requirement that the PM be a member of the house, and it’s happened before. However, there are some limitations if a PM is not an MP.

So? It’s not like that’s a challenge. All they have to do is parachute him into a safe seat. Given his overall popularity almost any Lib stronghold would vote him in in a heartbeat.

Probably true.

Apparently it’s happened before and you don’t have to - you just can’t sit in the chamber until you get a seat if I understand correctly.
