Former central banker Mark Carney will become Canada’s next prime minister after the governing Liberal Party elected him its leader Sunday as the country deals with U.S. President Donald Trump’s trade war and annexation threat, and a federal election looms.
Carney, 59, replaces Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who announced his resignation in January but remains prime minister until his successor is sworn in in the coming days. Carney won in a landslide, winning 85.9% of the vote.
“There is someone who is trying to weaken our economy,” Carney said. “Donald Trump, as we know, has put unjustified tariffs on what we build, on what we sell and how we make a living. He’s attacking Canadian families, workers and businesses and we cannot let him succeed and we won’t.”
Carney said Canada will keep retaliatory tariffs in place until “the Americans show us respect.””

Globalist from the depths of hell, this one.
@wtg I want a three season baffle box goose feather and down comforter. I'd like it to be made in Canada. It would probably be made in China. Lol.

I like Carney. He's showing more spine than the US Congress. Check out his interview with Jon Stewart.

I’m not sure whether I like him or not but he’s probably the right PM for the moment.
