Mark Carney is without a doubt in line with the CPC and would be a longshot to even consider running for the LPC. If he did run for the LPC, he'd definitely be a Blue Grit. The fact that Harper appointed him makes it unlikely that he'd run, as well.

That said, stranger things have happened, and often times these social media movements that seek to 'Draft ___________ for' whichever office they are running for are actually organized by that person's campaign before they officially announce their run. They do so to gauge support.

For those of you who like the job he's done (as I do), you may hope he doesn't dream of running as he is more effective affecting public policy in his job without the heavy political weight of being an elected official than he would be as PM. If you like his work, hope he doesn't run.
