Mark Carney "considering" electoral run
As reported on Global News: https://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/polit...0716e867&ei=29
Oh, boy, that's all we'd need. The Great Unwashed out there would look at this clown and say "but, but, but - he was a Central Banker in both Canada and the UK, he really knows how to run an economy" 
It'd probably be worse with him than with Turdo, I believe.

Could get interesting what with Global Affairs Barbie also jockeying for the crown and let's not forget the little munchkin freeland.

Be careful...
The libs are just testing the water. JT will "quit" when the party thinks it has the leader and the timing to win again. They need a trigger, if PP is smart he won't give them one.

You may not like him because he's possibly going to run for the Liberals, but you can't honestly compare his financial knowledge to anyone on the competitions side.

Freeland doesn't stand a chance as she's been far too long attached at the hip with JT, and would have way too much baggage. Christy Clark on the other hand has lots of experience and a long record of being hated by the NDP in BC for being too right wing. PP would have his hands full with her.

It doesn't matter who the liberals choose to lead them, he/she will still be a puppet for the puppet masters that chose Trudeau, so it won't help Canadians.

I'd say knowledge. He's probably got more money than God, and his track record is pretty much impeccable. I'd be more than happy to manage my $$$$

He would be a puppet controlled by the same people that control Trudeau, so his financial knowledge , would only help him to hide what the liberals give away to their friends better.

You absolutely nailed it.

Newfie Lib MP was on CBC today, if Trudope does not respond to the rebel faction in the caucus meeting in the AM on Wed, the rebels have mentioned amongst themselves, supporting the opposition non-confidence vote when it comes up.
It was also mentioned by PP, in the HOC today, that libs were coming and talking to him about their rebellion.
Trudope is so far up the creek at this point, he either prorogues or resigns. If he prorogues, he loses the next non-confidence anyway, which happens right after he makes his crown speech after the reopenng of parliament.
The Libs in the rebel faction have nothing to gain by supporting Trudope, and nothing to lose by not supporting him, many weren't running again anyway, and the optics of standing up to Trudope, may look better on a resume.
How is Carney going to handle the 10bil dollars for managing the CPP, and his 2bil fee for consulting to Freeland and the Libs, and resigning all his board appointments and giving up that income, if he decides to run? He'd be nuts to do it, between that and his still supporting carbon tax, PP will probably eat him for breakfast.
It's going to be well worth watching what happens in the HOC tomorrow.

They don't even have to hide it any more, people still line up to lick their boots and feel honoured for the opportunity to do so.

Well, if he takes the lead and forms the next government, he will be managing your money.
Not for your benefit, but for his.
You are correct about one thing, when it comes to lining his own pockets, his track record is impeccable.
Based on factual history alone, when it comes to financial planning for a government that is for the people, I trust Pierre way more than Mark.
But don't let details get in the way of your enjoyment of the decline.
Go Libs!!

Carney won't give up anything, he will have the contracts on other names, and given that the liberals own the RCMP, there won't be any investigation. And as PM, he can add kickbacks and selling influence, to his income , with no risk of the RCMP investigating.

When you say impeccable do you mean for the average citizen or for him and the banks.
I have a hard time believing that he won’t suck every dime out of us that he possibly can.
But hey they make grommet craft dinner now, just have to eat every second day.

I'm curious what you base both your "details" of Carneys and PP's financial abilities on?? Seems like Harper was more than happy with Carney's job performance before he then held a similiar position for the Brits. PP's ability??? Who knows, as I don't remember him really having a job before politics. Kinda sad when even being a teacher is more experience than he had....... and we know how that went.

So you're saying Carney has more ability than Poilievre but you're also saying you don't know what Poilievre's ability is.

He was good. Great, infact.
But....
Read up on his history since 2020, when he was recruited by the UN.
Everything he has been involved in since then is riddled with scandal.
He also went from a true capitalist mentality of "tax is bad for the economy", to "tax and spend".
Besides being a huge driver behind the carbon tax that we so enjoy now, he has also admittingly guided the current finance minister into the mess we have today.
What has Pierre done to screw up this once-great country?

I didn't say he PP "screwed up this great country", what I'm pointing out is he hasn't done a fraction of the work Carney has. Please point out some of his accomplishments.
May 01, 2023
The former governor of the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England has said more investment is needed in oil and gas production.
The world is boosting investments in clean energy but it will also need more oil and gas if it is to meet global energy demand.
Carney is the latest energy expert to emphasize the importance of an orderly energy transition that maintains investment in oil and gas.

Other than working as a tele marketer, and submitting a couple of opinion pieces, as far as I know he went right from school to politics. Please feel free to correct me.

And Notley claimed to be all for our oil industry, when she thought that it was the only way that she could be re-elected. Yet she showed her true colors when she protested pipelines and the tar sands. But the truly gullible, may have believed her sudden change of stance as genuine.
As for PP, he hasn't been in a position where he had large amounts of authority, so his capabilities are unknown in that regard.

I think he worked as a paperboy too, so considerably more capable than our current leader.
He started his own business as well.
Regardless, saying one number is higher than the other when you don't know what they both are isn't something I would do.

He spent some time at Goldman Sachs, so he has private sector experience, good or bad depending on your point of view, apparently very vocal against Britain leaving the EU. Economics and Politics can be contradictory.
