He inherited a $6-billion surplus from the Liberals and turned it into a record-breaking $13-billion deficit. How in the world do 40% of Quebecers still continue to trust the CAQ on the economy?
More than half of Quebecers do not trust the Legault government when it comes to the economy, according to a Léger poll released Wednesday.

Cierto. Carney necesita un mini-yo que internamente explique en un lenguaje accesible las medidas y avances en temas como la vivienda (gran drama canadiense), sanidad (salud mental y drogadicción, acceso a médicos de familia), inflación y empleo. Y de paso, apacigüe los ánimos en Alberta y Quebec.

Esta frase que ha dicho hoy Carney durante su discurso en Davos ya la dijo el otro día cuando una periodista le preguntó sobre los peligros de aliarse con China, un país que viola sistemáticamente los derechos humanos: "We actively take on the world as it is, not wait for a world we wish to be."
