    It’s not at all the same.

    This would give the PPC one seat total, and deprive the CPC of their current leader.

    Your analogy is actually much more similar to PP WINNING the seat. The Liberals being so happy to call a special election is BECAUSE they LIKE keeping PP, the guy they just beat the leader of the CPC. If the libs drag their feet to give challengers the space to make a play for CPC leadership, they’re rolling the dice. They’re choosing the devil they know and beat. Their bet is they think PP is a guy they can beat again.
