Prime Minister must hold a seat, yes, but the sentence you edited states that the PM doesn't have to win a seat - which is true. If the PM lost his/her riding, an MP in his/her party, who won the riding, will give up the seat for the PM. In this case the PM didn't win a seat. ATang 13:24, 23 August 2007 (EDT)
