Letter: Mark Carney is not the man to build a strong a free Canada

By Letter to the Editor on February 18, 2025.

Dear editor

Besides CBC, almost all news, entertainment and information come from four private companies, and their stock is owned by major Canadian banking and business oligarchs. These are the “established media.” In my opinion, these media oligarchies have been shaping news to their own advantage and to our detriment. I no longer trust them.

The “established media” are painting Mark Carney as the “saviour of Canada” and heir apparent to Justin Trudeau. They say Mr. Carney can stand up to the “American Bully,” Trump. They say Mr. Carney will reverse Trudeau’s pernicious policies and rebuild our country.

But who, exactly, is Mark Carney?

For decades, Mr. Carney has been an agent of globalism, the movement that promotes transnational bureaucracy and undermines national independence. Is this the man who will keep Canada free?

He is a founder and co-chair of the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero, a private-sector organization that claims to be about helping business address the transition to decarbonization, but in my opinion is only committed to halting economic development. Is this the man who will build the Canadian economy?

Since 2020 he has served as a senior adviser to Justin Trudeau. Both Carney and Trudeau subscribe to an extreme anti-development ideology. They have both done untold harm to Canada.

Carney supported and praised Trudeau’s carbon tax (until he didn’t). He agreed with the Liberal government blocking billions in energy investment (until he didn’t). He has shaped and supported the Liberal agenda (until he didn’t).

This is not the resume of the man who will build a strong Canada and defeat the American Bully.
