One does not technically "run for Prime Minister". The leader of the party that gains the most seats in the House normally becomes Prime Minister.
The current Federal party leaders are:
Stephen Harper (Conservative Party)
Stephane Dion (Liberal Party)
Jack Layton (New Democratic Party)
Elizabeth May (Green Party)
Gilles Duceppe (Bloc Quebecois)*
*The Bloc Quebecois does not field candidates outside of Quebec. Although theoretically possible for him to become Prime Minister, the minority government that would have to be involved would be so mathematically and demographically unrepresentative that it would almost certainly be quashed by a Coalition Government involving other parties.
