Could Canada’s next Prime Minister exploit a dangerous constitutional loophole to delay the next federal election? In this explosive episode of The Rupp Report, we break down the unprecedented crisis no one sees coming.
With Mark Carney poised to take over Liberal leadership, he could find himself in the shortest-lived premiership in history—unless he plays his cards right. What if he joins forces with Jagmeet Singh and the NDP, declares an economic emergency over Trump’s looming tariffs, and invokes a little-known clause in Canada’s constitution to extend Parliament’s term?
We explore:
The fixed election date law vs. Canada’s Constitution
How an “economic threat” could be used to justify election delays
Why the Governor General and courts might not intervene
The political maneuvering that could keep Liberals in power until 2026 or beyond
With Canada’s democracy at a crossroads, this is a scenario every voter needs to understand. Tune in now for a deep dive into the high-stakes political chess game that could affect everyone.
