On Toronto's island airport, only Carney can stop the madness. Where is the case for an expansion? And what else could this place be? My column: www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

Great quote from Mark Carney @mark-carney.bsky.social during today's press conference after getting sworn in. "Employment in the private sector is something that the leader of the opposition has never experienced" Comparing Carney to PP couldn't make that more clear.

“Carney was brought on to modernize the UK’s ossified banking system, and kudos poured in from the left, the right, and the centre.” “Mark Carney is the outstanding central banker of his generation,” former chancellor of the exchequer George Osborne told the House of Commons. Our likely next PM.

If Trump goes ahead with a 25% tariff on Canada, this could happen in the auto industry. Similar thing with Mexico.
If the U.S. imposes a 25% tariff on imported parts, a $55,000 Dodge minivan could rise to around $102,600 due to the cumulative effects of tariffs. Roughly 60% of the minivan’s value ($33,000) comes from parts that cross the U.S.-Canada-Mexico borders multiple times. Each crossing incurs a 25% tariff, compounding the parts’ cost. After four crossings, the imported parts’ value grows from $33,000 to over $80,500, dramatically inflating the final price. This demonstrates how tariffs disrupt complex supply chains, turning incremental taxes into massive cost increases for consumers.

Mark Carney seems not just like an ideal Liberal party leader, but an ideal prime minister for Canada in this exact moment. With the US backsliding on climate commitments, a strong economically-literate leader can be an advocate in the G7 for smart policy.

An excellent interview with Mark Carney on the Daily Show. The best choice the Liberals can and should put forth if they have any hope of winning the next election.
