Example: Pierre Polierve, leader of the opposition party who lost his seat in the last General election and had another MP (in one of his party’s safest constituencies in the country) resign so he could run (and win) in a by-election there.
And in his old riding, he had over 20 opponents, which just shows how popular this guy was. Post election, he has been completely impotent, no one cares what he has to say. Imagine basing a career on kissing Trump’s ass.
No, MPs don’t need to live in the riding they represent. Neither Britain nor Canada.

That was mostly the “longest ballot” folks.
