It was a cold day in March, when newly minted Liberal leader Mark Carney suggested he jumped into politics because the moment — Trump’s re-election and his threats to Canada’s economy — called for his skills. “I put my hand up because of the crisis,” he said, in Windsor.
It was an interesting revision of facts. The former governor of the Bank of Canada planned to run prior to Trump’s re-election and key planks of his approach to deal with the current tariff crisis — for example, spending less in order to invest more — were general prescriptions outlined in his 2021 book “Value(s).”
The Conservatives, at the time, warned that Carney seemed unafraid to exaggerate, or worse, to mislead Canadians when it served his purposes.
He’s as bad in some respects as Junior.
