Summary
Mark Carney has been elected as the new Liberal Party leader in Canada with a commanding 85.9% of votes, following Justin Trudeau’s resignation.
The former Bank of Canada and Bank of England governor will become Canada’s 24th prime minister within days.
In his victory speech, Carney took aim at both Donald Trump and Canadian Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre, vowing to maintain Canada’s tariffs until Americans “show us respect.”
Carney, despite never holding elected office, enters leadership as Canada faces trade tensions with the U.S. and a potential early election. He must secure a parliamentary seat and finalize the transition with Trudeau.
If your rents doubled while your population increase was only 4%, it sounds like immigration wasn’t the issue, now was it?
Blaming poor people for the housing bubble is like blaming a fish for the rain. Look up.
The problem is nimbyism and zoning, which is why matching immigration to housing completions is important, and obvious if you care about the poor.
Our population increased by 10 million during Trudeau. As a homeowner I’m not complaining lol
