Given that Mark Carney is likely going to win the leadership race, what would be the better move for him, call an early election or try to ride out the tide as long as possible and hoping to make it to October?

I'm torn. On one hand, Liberals are currently at their peakiest peak that they've been in a while in terms of popularity, while the Cons have been on the downward. However, this could be as high as the Liberals are going to see and if they don't capitulate on it now might cost them the election later down the road.

On the other hand, if they can manage to make it to October, it would give Canadians across the board the chance to see how, if for nothing else, (Carney) handles the current US dumpster fire south of us. If he handles them well, could be the difference between winning in general, or even see a majority instead of barely getting a minority.
