Prime Minister Dion, anyone?

Here in Canada, for some unfathomable reason, the ruling Conservatives seem intent on denying that the global recession will have any impact in the land of maple leaves, beavers and Alberta oil. As a consequence of Harper's magnificent arrogance, he may have opened to the door to a defeat of his six-week-old government, uniting the Liberals, NDP and Bloc together into an unlikely coalition of the left.

Canadians could end up with an interim Prime Minister by definition, a guy who's already resigned as the leader of his party in advance. A writer couldn't make this stuff up.
