MacKay is leaning yes but hasn't made a final decision, Ambrose hasn't expressed interest yet but her unilingualism has sparked an ABA movement here in Quebec. Poilievre and Deltell are interested but haven't made a final decision either.

Ambrose is considering a possible run, but she's also reflecting on her private life.

Charest sounds very interested, and QC isn't very interested in MacKay.

Charest might be hobbled by the ongoing UPAC investigation into illegal PLQ financing given the contest rule that bars candidates under police investigation or who may be subject to criminal charges or professional sanction. Rayes would support Charest, and Deltell is strongly considering running.

Yes. For comparison Trudeau was elected leader almost 2 years after the 2011 election. Joe Clark was elected leader 18 months after the 1974 election. Jean Chretien's forced retirement announcement and handover were 15 months apart. Quickest turnarounds included Turner, Pearson and Pierre Trudeau, which were all 6 months or less.

Turner was PM for less than 3 months and Parliament was dissolved 10 days after he was sworn in. Alas, the Trudeau wing temporarily decided not to depose him after he won his seat.

Vincenzo Guzzo, the cinema mogul and Dragons' Den star, is running.

Poilievre will announce later this month.

Charest is running, and interestingly one of his clients is Huawei for the Meng and 5G files (paywalled).

Charest will enter in the next couple of weeks and be endorsed by Mulroney and Brad Wall. MacKay is "100% in."
