“My question to Canadians is simple: Is Pierre Poilievre the person you want sitting across the table from Donald Trump?” Carney said, referring to the Conservative leader he disparaged as a career politician.
“I have managed budgets before. I have managed economies before. I have managed crises before,” added Carney, who served as head of Canada’s central bank during the 2008 financial crisis, as well as the governor of the Bank of England when the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union.
“This is a time for experience, not experiments,” he said.
Hes also just going to ignore the damage the Liberals have done the last 10 years and the fact his entire cabinet is exactly the same people?
Worst per capita GDP growth compared to the other 37 countries in the OECD, of course leading to stagnant wages for which we imported mass immigrants to artificially boost GDP, that the UN then defined as modern slavery due to inhumane living conditions. Then scandal after scandal, with even Carney himself recently avowing a person who said we should ship a Canadian tweeting in Canada to China for speaking out against the CPC. All on top of a world leading housing crisis that seems inevitable after that level of mismanagement.
Canada deserves what we get if we elect the Liberals again. More foreign funded Hereditary chiefs blocking pipelines, more debt spent on consumption and consultants to hide falling economic growth, and higher home prices as Carney himself said he would do nearly double what Harper was doing a decade ago now during an extreme housing crisis. The poor will be ground to dust and you will blame Trump as if these problems hadnt existed before his tariffs a month ago.
He also already rolled back the capital gains tax, the one good thing they did, but I knew when Trudeau put it in they would repeal it before it gathered a solitary dime.

I agree that the Liberals should absolutely be put in the penalty box, as any government should after being in office for 10 years.
And still the alternative is far worse. A rudderless, directionless group with no actual policy and no interest in accountability or transparency. Worse, with instincts that mimic the existential threat to Canada’s sovereignty.
Carney is a guy that seems singularly equipped for this moment. We’d be fools not to take advantage of that.
He inflated two housing bubbles, here and the UK. Then worked as a banker. Was there something Im not seeing that makes you so optimistic, I’ve never heard him speak on anything except climate change prior to this, he’s definitely never spoken out against the extreme cost of living.
I think most young people want cheaper housing, which as I said he has already said he would nearly double Harpers numbers on immigration. Seems to me he really loves bank profits.
If you think the conservatives will make housing cheaper then I’ve got a bridge to sell you. If you think the NDP has a chance to take power I’ve got another bridge to sell you.
The economy and housing are fucked all around the world, not just Canada.
Migrants will have to continue coming if we don’t want to have to face the crisis they’re starting to face in Japan and Korea with not enough young people to take care of seniors. Anyway, the alternative is leaving those people to die as we fuck up climate and the countries they live in.
Lmao this is the second time I’ve seen this Turnip guy on here, I’m not convinced that he isn’t a right-wing shill that got lost trying to find Reddit.
So who should everyone vote for?
My opinion is anyone but the Liberals, in order to create real world consequences for doing population driven QE. It should be a warning to all that it is a way to lose elections, since it dramatically hurts the poor and causes shortages without creating real prosperity.
We essentially inverted the phillips curve, which BoC publications say the labor shortage is a natural phenomenon after QE in order to restore the created wealth inequality from asset price inflation, so we shouldnt be trying to fill the temporal labor shortage before the Bank of Canada raises rates to cool the job market and asset prices.
But voting for Conservatives is leaning into that damage. So, surely you mean to exclude them too?
The person you are replying to is an anti immigration advocate. It’s all they talk about and they’re only point in any issue.
Oh so you’re like the people who were telling others to vote third party to punish the Democrats in order to get the Republicans in power… So, how’s the weather in Moscow my man?
Obviously the party that has shit the bed every time they have been in office but luckily not in the last few years
