Stephen Harper is not the most likable prime minister we’ve ever had but he ranks among the most politically savvy.
He’s assessed the political landscape between now and Oct. 19, 2015 — the last possible date for the next federal election — and concluded an early election is his best hope.
The rationale for Harper calling an election early this winter is compelling:
First, he seems to have deliberately framed his approach to entering the war against Islamic State in a way that made it difficult for either opposition party to support his actions. They complained that Harper was secretive, hyperpartisan and disrespectful.
