I met a teacher in Georgetown, Ontario, who asked her students to describe their dreams for Canada. This is what they wrote:

Great quote from Mark Carney @mark-carney.bsky.social during today's press conference after getting sworn in.

"Employment in the private sector is something that the leader of the opposition has never experienced"

Comparing Carney to PP couldn't make that more clear.

“Carney was brought on to modernize the UK’s ossified banking system, and kudos poured in from the left, the right, and the centre.”

“Mark Carney is the outstanding central banker of his generation,” former chancellor of the exchequer George Osborne told the House of Commons.

Our likely next PM.

Carney led two central banks through two world-shifting crises. Does that make him a political contender?

In Canada, it’s probably going to be Carney vs Poilievre for Prime Minister, in a time of unprecedented economic and sovereignty threats from Trump.

Carney hasn’t been a politician, and is one of the most experienced and respected economic experts in the world, known for intelligence & integrity.

If Trump goes ahead with a 25% tariff on Canada, this could happen in the auto industry. Similar thing with Mexico.

Mark Carney seems not just like an ideal Liberal party leader, but an ideal prime minister for Canada in this exact moment.

With the US backsliding on climate commitments, a strong economically-literate leader can be an advocate in the G7 for smart policy.

An excellent interview with Mark Carney on the Daily Show. The best choice the Liberals can and should put forth if they have any hope of winning the next election.
NGL this actually changed my mind about Mark Carney. I thought he was the bastard child of Ignatieff and Freeland. But this, this is something we can work with: www.youtube.com/watch?v=zs8S...

If you care about cities, transportation, saving lives, bike-lanes, lying politicians, or how to completely dismantle evidence-free populist liar’s decisions.
