Looks like this happened in Haiti yesterday. Any objections to this resolving YES?

bought Ṁ4,960 YES

No objections — it seems pretty clear-cut that this would resolve YES

This other market resolving positively would mean a Yes here as well, since ousting a PM means the whole government is dissolved and a new one must be nominated.

@Mattfr France is not a country run by the Prime Minister. France is setup much more like the US with a Chief Executive in the President. So this is an edge case that I think should be NO. What do you think @Gen ?

@BTE The French president can oust the sitting PM.

Per your resolution criteria: “The question will also be considered resolved positively if a sitting prime minister or president dissolves the government and calls for new elections due to internal political upheaval or other unforeseen circumstances […]”.

These seem to both trigger on the same condition then.

@Mattfr The president can only ask for her resignation in this situation, not dissolve the government. And the PM can also resign without calling for a new election or dissolving the entire parliament. But it’s a possibility.

predicted YES

@BTE I have no idea about the French government, I don’t have any useful input here 😅

@BTE So it sounds like to resolve YES that both conditions of the PM to be ousted and the parliament to be dissolved, right?
