Ex Bank of England boss Mark Carney is sure to be the next PM of Canada.

Featured Replies

So called Mr Mark Carbon Tax Carney will cakewalk to power as elected prime minister after he wins the upcoming nomination to lead Canada's Liberal Party.

 

After Mr Trump's recent tariff threats and jokes about Canada becoming the 51st state, Canadians are terrified of the so called Mini-Trump, Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre, being elected as PM and will vote accordingly.

 

Mr Carney, some say, is a card carrying member of the W-E-F and a Klaus Schwab protégé. Carney has worked closely with Mr Trudeau, Canada's current PM.

 

Many fear Carney has no appetite to develop Canada's rich natural resouces including vast oil and natural gas reserves, in light of his dedication to W-E-F, Greenisms and "You will own nothing and be happy" ideologies.

 

I have heard others say they fear Mr Carney's vision for Canada is more aligned with a communist China-type society than Switzerland's model.

 

If that turns out to be the case, counter-opinion will not be tolerated. Dissent will not be tolerated. You will play by the rules or your bank accounts will be frozen. Perhaps in extreme cases your assets seized?

 

Could a universal basic income be on the table as well?  With Trump's tariffs looming, Canada's economy could be absolutely eviscerated.

 

I predicted this several months ago on Asean Now, but no one believed me that Canadians could be so thick as to vote Liberal yet again after the last 10 years of mismanagement and scandal.

 

The devil you know?

 

PREPARE.

Gee I hope so.

 

What a perfect timing to be back in Canada.

 

money for nothing 

Pretty sure he will win the nomination. Freeland is annoying and has that "I'm so smart I will talk to you like you are a kindergarden student" voice.  

 

I dislike Carney's policys intensely, but he is undeniably clever.  I wonder how he will fare in politics and debates with actual opposition.  PP was caught flat-footed by Trudeau's resignation and has been scrambling to retool his political campaign.  But he still has the juice to win, thankfully.

 

God help the country if Carney is elected, though 

There is an article about the US invading Canada on a Canadian news site portal.

Although the probability is low, according to a military expert, he doesn't entirely rule out the possibility. 

 

There was another article on Karina Gould. She said if she gets elected, she will completely reform the Employment Insurance system.

The comment from Karina Gould was that she will implement a UBI within 1 year of being elected as a result of the damage the tariffs are doing to the economy (or in part because of that). 

 

But didn't read anything about Carney.

Actually, it's a consideration that expats in Thailand from possibly Canada and US will need to consider.

But probably all Western countries will do it. 

Especially if you have a Thai wife and kids.

Their lives might be easier in the West?

As a Canadian, this is utterly stupid. Why would they reelect the party that has driven the country into the ground? Sure Trudeau was the figurehead, but he did not even in a vacuum.

its like throwing away the rubber duck, but keeping the dirty bathwater.

I don't disagree that it's stupid, but it's plausible.

 

The electorate have short attention spans, terrible memories and are in fact pretty dim.

 

Since Trump's blustering about the 51st state, Canadians are spooked by anything with even a faint aroma of MAGA no matter how tenuous the connection.

 

How is the MSM portraying P.P. and the Conservatives now?

 

The Canada hockey win over the USA ices it for Team Liberal I'm afraid.

 

PREPARE

If UBI comes to fruition Canadian expats in Thailand will be royally f$$$

 

Massive devaluation and no UBI for you because one thing is sure.....you would have to be Canadian resident to receive it.

I know 😊 Because the opposition leader is a career politician who has zero idea or concern for what life is like for normal people and will do far more harm the the Libs ever could 🤔

Before you post a retarded reply with no substance  that makes you look like an idiot, you could at least type what is wrong with my thoughtful and intelligent post.

 

But let me guess.... you sold a house back in some armpit of Ontario to live a dream in Thailand.... and now you're frettin'

You ARE joking, I presume.  Polievre was born to a teenage mother, and adopted by a family of two teachers. Grew up in a very modest household. Now compare that to Silver Spoon Trudeau...

Actually the US won. But the scoreboard was made by Dominion.

has canada been driven into the ground or is that just propaganda?

anyway, the UBI might be a big selling point in the coming elections. both in canada and in the US. I wonder if Trump will roll it out in the US in his presidency. I think it might be connected to that sovereign fund he created.
