The Liberal mailing list sent this an hour or two ago. “From” Mark Carney:

I am deeply honoured to be our next Liberal leader – and I’m ready to get to work.

We’re going to build the fastest-growing economy in the G7.

We’ll cut taxes that divide us and put money back into your pockets.

We’ll invest in health care, seniors, and affordable child care.

We’ll take bold action on climate, and we’ll protect Canadian workers from Trump’s tariffs.

I really hope that ol affordability crisis just slipped his mind. Tax cuts are fine (even if it’s coded language for dropping the carbon tax), but groceries are still crazy expensive and housing is still hard to come by.

    He is a new politician you cannot expect him to have the lies figured out, his banker lies do not transfer over well.

      This is the appropriate level of cynicism - Carney hasn’t proven himself. We want him to be good, because we want him to be better than Poilievre, but he hasn’t shown us that yet.

        Or at least seem better than Poilievre to the people who might vote conservative.

        Want him to be better. He’s not a security threat therefore he is automatically better.
