Who will be Canada’s next Prime Minister?
Market Rules
The next Canadian federal elections are set to take place in October 2025. The upcoming choice of prime minister will depend on the new composition of the Canadian Parliament following those elections.
The alternative that corresponds to the name of the first person to step in as Prime Minister of Canada following the elections of 2025 will be considered the winning outcome of this market. If the winner's name is not listed in the alternatives, the alternative containing his/her party will be considered the winning outcome for this market.
Alternatively, if the Canadian elections of 2025 take place on a different date - or if any unforeseen event leads to a change of Prime Minister in Canada before that - this market may be resolved on a different date from what was initially planned, as soon as the next individual to take office as Prime Minister of Canada is determined.
Note from the editor: A previous version of this market incorrectly stated that Trudeau's term was originally meant to last through 2023. That was incorrect, and was later on corrected to October 2025.
