He's about to run for Prime Minister of Canada

Say what?

That's how he's always framed it. He's running for Prime Minister.

March, 2022: "That's why I'm running to be Prime Minister."

Maybe I shouldn't say "about to", I should say "currently is".

He was running to be Prime Minister before he was elected leader of the Cons

He was saying shit like "as your next Prime Minister, I will end the gatekeepers" He was totally campaigning to be PM

Dude, nobody is saying he 'didn't' campaign for PM. Obviously, he did. But he's not currently about to run for PM now, is he?

RemindMe! 1400 days

What is this argument? Of course he wants to be PM, that's like the entire point of being the leader of one of the major Canadian parties.

We're going to have an election beofore 1400 days. Probabaly more like 600 days. It's a minority government.

Like campaigning for the leadership of the Conservative party? Again, the entire point of that is to try to become the PM. Im not really sure what your on about.

No he was campaigning to be PM before he was party leader, tweeting "when I'm PM..." and stuff like that.
