Mark Carney: Different Face, Same Failed Liberal Crew, Same Failed Liberal Policies

Mark Carney is not the “harbinger of change” Liberals would have you believe. He’s just the new face slapped on top of Trudeau’s failed policies.

Mark Carney’s resumé shows he is the ultimate Ottawa insider, not the party outsider he presented during the leadership contest.^[i]

Analyst at Goldman Sachs (1990-2003)
Senior associate deputy minister for the Department of Finance (2004-2007)
Governor of the Bank of Canada (2008-2013)
Governor of the Bank of England (2013-2020)
United Nations special envoy for climate action and finance (2020-2025)
Special advisor and chair of the Liberal task force on economic growth (2024)
Vice chairman at Brookfield Asset Management (2020-2025)
Board member of the World Economic Forum (2010-2025)

With Marco Mendicino and David Lametti by his side, alleged massive voting irregularities in his Liberal leadership win, and his ties to a faltering Brookfield Asset Management, Carney’s rise to the Prime Minister’s office threatens to inflict more of Justin Trudeau’s failed policies on Canadians.

As public safety minister, Marco Mendicino mishandled Paul Bernardo’s prison transfer and misled Parliament over the Emergencies Act during the 2022 trucker convoy protests. Evidence shows that Mendicino lied to Parliament repeatedly when he claimed police asked him to invoke the Emergencies Act.

By appointing Mendicino as his chief of staff, Carney is doubling down on an incompetent crew whose failures are well documented.

David Lametti, Trudeau’s former justice minister, leads Carney’s transition team.

Lametti’s tenure was marked by the SNC-Lavalin scandal and his failure to address systemic issues within the justice system.

These appointments show that despite Carney’s outsider facade, he is the ultimate Liberal Party “Insider” who now leads Trudeau’s team.

Carbon Tax Carney

A Toronto Sun editorial nailed how Carney’s claim that he will “end the carbon tax” is just more Liberal lies.

“Mark Carney is leading Canadians down the garden path on the Liberals’ carbon tax, aided and abetted by reports claiming he will scrap it” and replace it with a Cap and Trade scheme. ^[ii]

“Cap and trade is a carbon tax by another name, although less visible to the public. It raises the prices we pay for goods created using fossil fuel energy — meaning almost everything —as opposed to the carbon tax which increases taxes on them.”

Carney’s insistence that “big polluters” won’t pass on his shiny new carbon tax to consumers is delusional thinking.

This from a man who is supposedly an economic genius.

Leadership Vote Results Defy Statistical Probability

Perhaps the most troubling aspect of Carney’s rise is the leadership vote itself. Carney won an astonishing 86% of the vote, securing victory in all 343 Liberal Party districts—a result that strains credibility.

Reports have emerged that the voting percentages across all ridings in the country were almost identical.

In a country as geographically and demographically diverse as Canada this mass uniformity in voting patterns is defies any logical explanation.

Why were two thirds of all Liberal leadership voters disqualified?

Was the vote manipulated to ensure Carney’s victory?

These questions remains unanswered by Carney or the legacy media.

One online commentator described it this way.

“If you’re going to cheat, at least make an attempt to not get caught.”

The lack of transparency and the apparent vote rigging in Carney’s favor undermine the legitimacy of Carney’s win. It also raises serious questions about the integrity of the Liberal Party’s internal processes, questions nobody seems interested in answering.

Chrystia Freeland’s Demise and the Trudeau Machine

Freeland’s obliteration is particularly telling. Once a trusted deputy to Trudeau, her resignation from cabinet in December 2024 over disagreements on handling Trump’s tariffs set off the chain reaction that ended Trudeau’s tenure.

Her departure, described as a “clear rebuke” of Trudeau, sent shock waves through Canadian politics and highlighted deep-seated issues within the party’s leadership.

In response, the Liberal Party machine turned on her and delivered a humiliating defeat in the leadership contest.

Freeland’s fall from grace highlights the ruthless nature of the Liberal Party’s internal politics, where loyalty to the leader and the party’s established interests takes precedence over everything else.

Carney’s ascension at Freeland’s expense suggests that he is not the unifying figure his PR people want you to believe, but that he is another master of the divisive and manipulative politics that characterized Justin Trudeau’s reign.

Brookfield Asset Management and Corporate Ties

Carney’s ties to corporate interests undermine his credibility as a leader who will prioritize the needs of everyday Canadians.

Carney’s association with Brookfield Asset Management, a firm known for its aggressive investment strategies and lack of transparency in environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices, is deeply concerning.

Since Carney won the leadership, Brookfield’s stock has taken a hit, reflecting investor unease about his shift to politics or broader economic concerns tied to his policies. At a time when Canada faces a trade war with the U.S., having a leader whose financial interests are entangled with a firm now rooted in “Trump’s hometown” raises serious doubts about his ability to prioritize Canadian sovereignty.

Where Does It All Lead?

Mark Carney will be sworn in as Prime Minister on Friday, March 14, 2025.^[iii] Once sworn in, there are two schools of thought about what happens next.

One, Mark Carney lacks credibility to govern. He lacks the validity to govern. He lacks the authority to govern. He lacks the legitimacy to govern.

Carney will call an election almost immediately so he can consolidate power and gain legitimacy. Emboldened by polls that show the Liberals are neck and neck with Pierre Poilievre’s Conservative Party, he will believe he can ride the wave of his “overwhelming” leadership victory and win a snap federal election.

The longer Carney delays, the stronger the stench of his illegitimacy becomes.

Two, Carney embraces the road to despotism that Trudeau perpetuated by proroguing Parliament to avoid a non-confidence vote. This option is where things get really ugly for Canadians.

One commentator described this road in seven steps.^[iv]

Carney will have a pre-orchestrated deal with the NDP to avoid a non-confidence vote should he actually recall Parliament. The NDP deal is a smokescreen. He won’t recall Parliament.
Carney will declare an economic “state of emergency” and lay the blame at President Trump’s feet.
Carney will use that “state of emergency” to defer the federal election until October 2026.
Governor General Mary Simon will agree with Carney’s “state of emergency” and endorse his deferral of the election.
During this 18-month window, Carney will impose a full-blown WEF agenda on Canada, including digital currency, a renamed carbon tax and a complete restriction on resource development, destroying Canada’s resource industry and our economy with it.
Carney will then resign before the 2026 election without ever recalling Parliament and without ever being elected to Parliament.
With his Canadian, British and Irish passports, Carney will move on to the next phase of his life, leaving a destroyed Canada in his wake.

Mark Carney’s leadership is bad news for Canada, not because he’s uniquely unfit but because he represents “more of the same” when the country desperately needs real and substantial change. As Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives loom in the next election, Carney’s Liberals risk being exposed as a party that can’t even cheat convincingly, let alone govern effectively.
