…and if Carney wins, he’ll be PM but not an MP. The last time the PM was not a MP, it was John Turner. That was after Justin’s father Pierre resigned. History is repeating.
The LPC lost badly under Turner in the next election - Cross your fingers.
The polls have clearly shown that Carney as the perceived front runner is crushing the conservatives lead
I don’t know if they’ll force a general election right away, but it would be wise for Carney to seek a mandate.
He doesn’t have a seat so I think an election will be called asap so he can get a seat.
is a seat a requirement to be PM?
No not a requirement, he can be PM without a seat - but it’s very unusual. There will be a general election called soon. He’ll get a seat.
Any Senate appointments available right now? PM can rule from Senate.
I think all senate appointments are full. My guess is there will be an election called March 10.
