Carney apologizes to Montreal massacre survivor running for Liberals after getting name and school wrong
Liberal Leader Mark Carney named the wrong university as the site of the 1989 Montreal massacre on Tuesday — and flubbed the last name of the survivor who is running with his party.
At a campaign stop in Musquodoboit Harbour in the Nova Scotia riding of Central Nova, Carney made a nod to Liberal candidate Nathalie Provost but made two critical mistakes in the process.
“You want les défenseurs de la justice sociale, like Nathalie Pronovost à Montréal,” Carney said, calling Provost a defender of social justice.
He then repeated Provost’s name, making the same mistake and adding another.
