Canadians have a right to know before election day how Mark Carney’s past work life could intersect with his role as prime minister, and not four months from now, when the ethics commissioner finishes his report.
There are several potential issues that could arise under a Mark Carney government. Most are connected to his time at Brookfield Asset Management. These include potential conflicts of interest with investments tied to the firm’s performance, his former business relationship with China, and his net-zero work, which calls into question his commitment to Canadian energy. These could be potential issues for any government leader, regardless of party.
