I am really very certain - having also seen 4 iterations of No.10 while working in the Cabinet Office - that adding more people to the centre of government is not the solution here.
If the shake-up is on, it better be a proper one.

Very interesting & tallies with my findings on experimentation @ Cdn Heritage. I would put leadership at the top of the list; in my work I found that it was not enough for leaders to accept experimentation/innovation - they need to actively *champion* it

In this federal election, platforms matter even less. Given the amount of uncertainty, policy proposals are written in pencil. Voters are wise to invest their time in choosing honorable MPs and leaders to make tough decisions.
Re-upping this. Senior folks in any discipline relevant to global affairs or public policy should apply (polisci, econ, soc, history, anthro, area studies, geography...). It's a genuinely nice place to work in a great city. I'm on the committee and happy to chat.

What happens next?
Carney will be invited to form a govt by the GG.
Carney will be the Prime Minister-designate during a transition period (could be really fast or a few days).
Once the transition is over, Trudeau formally resigns as Prime Minister, and Carney is appointed PM.
