Prime Minister Sharon and his Cabinet were working towards a compromise over his Gaza pullout plan. The deal in the works called for Cabinet approval "in principle" for Mr. Sharon's plan to "disengage" from conflict with the Palestinians but required a new vote months from now before any settlements could actually be evacuated. Finance Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who opposed the [original] plan said, "We are looking for a formula that will protect this Government." Meanwhile, Mr. Sharon said after leaving the Gaza Strip, Israel would stop providing electricity and infrastructure to the Palestinians there. He ... said high-rises for Palestinians would replace the settlers' homes in the Gaza Strip. (Ha'aretz, Reuters)

The Prime Minister is in theory chosen by the President. In practice, he or she is chosen by his or her party. Prior to 2005, all Prime Ministers were elected leader by their party room, that is, the MPs and Senators of their party. In 2005, the Liberal Democrats elected their leader by a vote of all party members nation-wide, a first for Georgeland. The current Prime Minister, Luke Macaulay, was chosen as leader by only his parliamentary colleagues.

Amendments to the Canada Elections Act passed in 2007 during the first session of the 39th Parliament have brought about legal changes which are designed to constrain when the Prime Minister can request a dissolution of Parliament. Under the revised Act, a general election must occur on the third Monday in October every four years starting in 2009. Other than cases of war or insurrection, the only exceptions provided for under the Act are when the government is defeated by a vote of no confidence (discussed below) or otherwise "prevented from governing." It should be noted that the Canada Elections Act is not a part of the constitution and could be further amended or repealed by Parliament in the future.
