He is the Prime Minister. Do you actually think that there are there 2 different sets of powers for an elected Prime Minister vs. an appointed Prime Minister? Seriously?
If you look at it from that perspective, your inquiry is rather illogical.
Still waiting for the points standings in your trivia competition. How much time do you need? Sincerely I like you because you're a very intelligent guy but I'm just having fun with you because I know that you're a good sport and you just take it in stride.
Absolutely. In a Democracy, being elected is a prerequisite before implementing any change.
Carney has been chosen as Prime Minister by Liberal party delegates. He does not have a mandate from Canadian eligible voters.
The Liberal Party currently has a minority
position in the House of Commons with a plurality of seats. This means that they require assistance from one or more of the other parties before enacting any legislation into law.
Parliament is not currently in session, so there is no possibility of any Bills becoming laws at present.

An un-elected Prime Minister, who has not won a seat in Parliament, cannot participate in votes or debates on the floor of the House of Commons.
it's important to note Carney will inherit the same minority Liberal government—one that all three major opposition parties have already stated they will vote against when next given the opportunity. Currently, the House of Commons remains prorogued until March 24.
If you are 100% certain that an appointed Prime Minister has the same privileges as an elected one, please provide a link to a reliable online source which will confirm your assumption.
I don't expect you to provide the requested link. Prove me wrong.
