No. Some Prime Ministers name a Deputy Prime Minister to answer general policy questions during Question Period, and to chair Cabinet meetings in their absence. A Deputy Prime Minister does not have any special authority, and there is no significance in terms of succession, as this is instead specified by an acting ministers minute[1]. Usually, the appointment is used to honour an individual minister, or to recognize a demographic to which the Deputy belongs (region, race, gender...). The current Prime Minister, Stephen Harper, has not named a Deputy Prime Minister.

Macdonald won four electoral mandates during his second term in office, and Sir Wilfred Laurier did the same during his term. Several Prime Ministers, including Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir William Lyon Mackenzie King, served multiple terms as a result of regaining power after having lost office. The most recent Prime Minister to do so was Pierre Trudeau.
