Will Mark Carney replace Justin Trudeau?

Poll - Total Votes: 9

Mark Carney

Chrystia Freeland

Someone else(who?)

You can only vote on one answer.

JT has just resigned. MC was a former Bank Governor for Canada & England. Given that Canada's economy is hurting and an election is a year away. Should MC become PM, or Chyrstia Freeland or someone else?

Not a fan of her personally, but Freeland has already proven she can manage the orange toddler down south.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow Totally agree! If he hates her, that should be a plus added to her without much efforts on her own. I feel he is intimidated by strong women.

Mark can’t as he’s not an elected minister in the parliament!!

American here. We're a republic so our rules are different than Canadas parliamentary system. It's a good question, and looking at the rules (from 2020), apparently, yes, you can be elected to lead the Liberal political party in Canada (and be PM in this example) without being a congressman.

That's wild
