Liberal Party members have chosen former central banker Mark Carney to be their new leader and the next prime minister of Canada.
Carney secured enough votes in the first round of voting to win the job, party president Sachit Mehra announced.
There was never a chance a woman would win as leader. The Liberals claim to be feminist but have never had a female in charge running the Liberal party.
I really don’t think that had much to do with it.
It should be no surprise that during an economic crisis, the candidate that successfully lead two central banks was selected.
Carney had nothing to do with Canada’s economy, it was Jim Flaherty. Carney did major economic damage to England and England was worse off when Carney left. He plans to bring in more taxes if he can’t increase current sales taxes plus increase income taxes.
OMG a Minister of Finance and the Governor of the Bank of Canada had entirely different jobs to do, and different roles. They worked together but had different responsibilities.
He’s going to tax polluting industries. Instead of individuals. If the country elects the Liberals under Carney it’s a mandate to try new things. What those new things are, will be decided by a guy with an education in economics and experience as a policy maker as the Governor of two major global Banks.
Under Carney, everything you buy will get more expensive, plus you will have less money with higher taxes. Watch what happens to your money in 3 weeks on April 1st.
Freeland has polled fairly poorly against Poilievre and this is what everyone i know voted on - who can defeat him. Then there’s some of the bad takes she made. She sounded austerity-ish, made some anti-woke statements which play right in the cons’ hands.
The broad Canadian public is against woke policies. People want meritocracy, not identity. Read the public polling of the amount of people who support same sex marriage, it’s going down. Look at the polling numbers of the public turning against the ideology of transgenderism.
Please piss off to conservative lemmy’s. Or to the US. You have no coherent explanation of what is “woke” except for maybe it’s something undefined that you don’t personally like. You don’t speak for the broad Canadian public. Stop inflecting garbage US nonsense here. We’ve had gay marriage for more than 25 years and it’s never going away.
When you go outside, talk with random strangers and ask for their take on woke and check if people out in public support gay marriage. Get people;s opinion’s face to face that you don’t know previously, the internet is not the real world.
