Summary
Mark Carney has been elected as the new Liberal Party leader in Canada with a commanding 85.9% of votes, following Justin Trudeau’s resignation.
The former Bank of Canada and Bank of England governor will become Canada’s 24th prime minister within days.
In his victory speech, Carney took aim at both Donald Trump and Canadian Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre, vowing to maintain Canada’s tariffs until Americans “show us respect.”
Carney, despite never holding elected office, enters leadership as Canada faces trade tensions with the U.S. and a potential early election. He must secure a parliamentary seat and finalize the transition with Trudeau.
The last 5 years he’s been advising Trudeau.
No he hasn’t. He was hired in Sept 2024 to advise Trudeau.
Your link is about a Globe & Mail event that Carney was speaking at.
Around Covid, after which we did mass immigration to prop up falling GDP :
Around the same time, in August 2020, Trudeau tapped Carney to serve as an “informal adviser” on the government’s pandemic recovery plan.
- Carney was briefly a consultant during Covid. Not a decision maker, not constantly advising Trudeau
- Population growth greatly stalled during and after covid. Immigration actually helped cover for that.
- The state of the housing market has nothing to do with immigration and those who want you to believe it has wants you to be mad at a scapegoat so that you won’t look at the real issues.
You keep posting links that you think prove your point but they really don’t.
Do I think Carney is the best Canada deserves? Absolutely not
Do I think he’s the man that’s gonna keep our country afloat during this trade war and stand up to the orange buffoon? Absolutely.
