I would offer that being an expert in business, might actually be the worst possible qualification for a politician when it comes to making decisions for actual citizens and the environment.
And if you think Carney must be a political super genius because he was a banker and economist etc etc., well, I'd like you to meet tech bros as proof positive that skills in one area don't always port over to another.
I'd write this up but I don't want to. So, feel free to mad libs it.

Good thing our leaders would never do something like this, right Canada? Right?
“For the Kremlin, the Miami talks were the culmination of a strategy, hatched before Trump’s inauguration, to bypass the traditional U.S. national security apparatus and convince the administration to view Russia not as a military threat but as a land of… opportunity” www.wsj.com/world/russia...
Make Money Not War: Trump’s Real Plan for Peace in Ukraine
The Kremlin pitched the White House on peace through business. To Europe’s dismay, the president and his envoy are on board.

Mark Carney came to power in Canada by saying he could fix the country’s ruptured relationship with the US. He might need a new playbook.
How Carney Needs a New Playbook to Counter Trump in Trade Talks
Mark Carney came to power in Canada by pitching himself as an economic crisis fighter who could fix the country’s ruptured relationship with the US. Seven months after he won a national election, the economy is in a fragile state, and a trade truce with the Trump administration has been elusive.

My husband does this. Scores points with the kids by saying yes to things he absolutely knows cannot happen because he knows I will step in and shut it down. But he gets to be the good guy who 'tried' while counting on me to wreck the plan.
In the face of global trade shifts and uncertainty, we’re working to build a stronger, more sustainable, more competitive, and more independent economy.
Canada’s MOU with Alberta will ensure we can advance that mission together.
