John Ivison: Michael Ignatieff would be PM in a Liberal-led coalition - Full Comment
Michael Ignatieff will become Prime Minister in a Liberal-led coalition government if the opposition parties succeed in bringing down the Conservatives in a no-confidence vote in the House of Commons next week and if the Governor-General deems it to be a viable alternative, sources said late last night.
It is understood that the plan will be presented to the Liberal caucus Monday at 1 p.m.
It will be interesting to see if this (the presentation to caucus) comes to pass, and whether it will get leaked to the media.
Edit: Guess Ivison was a bit off on this one. The CBC is reporting that Dion will be lead the coalition. So he might not go down in Canadian political history as the only Liberal leader to not be Prime Minister.
