PP gone forever? Or is CPC somehow going to give him another seat so he can stay leader?
They can’t give him someone else’s seat. They can ask someone else to resign their seat and he can run in a byelection for that seat but the prime minister (Carney) can wait up to 6 months before calling the byelection, which itself can have a campaign period of up to 50 days.
So if Carney wants to, he can keep PP out of office until at least next year.
The other cool thing is that PP is no longer eligible to occupy Stornoway House, the residence of the leader of the official opposition, since PP no longer has a seat. This means he has to move out and he loses access to the $200k year budget for household staff. So he’ll have to get out there and look for housing like the rest of us plebs (though he can easily afford it).
Whoever the conservatives choose as parliamentary leader can defer it to him according to CBC, so he shouldn't have to move out.
Yes, that's where the drama will unfold next. Will there be a civil war, and how many factions will be involved?
Split the right like the left? Sorry, I can only get so erect
Are you young?
The whole saga of how the modern CPC came to fruition was such a back stabby shitshow
It all started that day Day road up on that seadoo...
Actually I'll never forget Air Farce lampooning Preston Manning, good times.
I wish he'd try working a real job for once in his life.
But realistically, if he we're going to step down willingly it would have occurred last night. We'll see if the party sacrifices another MP to let him stay on. Fucking guy.
The latter. This ghoul is not going away.
