  • If you're looking for a leader who will put Canada first, Mark Carney is not your guy. I say this even as Carney is many things that Justin Trudeau is not

The article by David Staples discusses skepticism regarding Mark Carney's potential role in Canadian politics, particularly his suitability to prioritize Canada's interests. Staples outlines several reasons for this distrust: Carney's globalist perspective, which might not align with national interests; his past decisions as Governor of the Bank of England, where he was criticized for policies that arguably favored the financial sector over the general populace; his involvement with international financial institutions like the World Economic Forum, suggesting a focus on global rather than local issues; and his economic policies that could be seen as promoting a form of capitalism that benefits the elite. Additionally, Staples points out Carney's lack of direct political accountability in Canada, his association with high-profile figures and events that might not resonate with average Canadians, and his economic strategies that could potentially lead to increased inequality or economic instability in Canada. The overarching theme is a concern that Carney's internationalist views and past actions might not serve Canada's best interests if he were to take a significant political role.
