Is it Carbon Tax Carney? Canapé Carney? Redistribution Carney? Right now, Canada's Conservatives can't even settle on a nickname for their likely opponent in the next federal election, much less a compelling argument against his candidacy.
Yeah I saw an interview of him with Jon Stewart and he seems pretty sensible.
But it still sounds like austerity measures aren’t off the table. I’ve been living in austerity measures all of my adult life since 2008 it seems and I feel like I can’t take it anymore.
I’ve been watching increasingly austere policies come up (and voted against them) since before 2008. This guy has been pro-regulation, remember. Not something big business tends to favour. Austerity policies tend to come from politicians listening to dedicated neoliberal economists, touting the usual free market garbage. When it comes to a banker, you have to research/watch them and discern what outcome they’re going for. The best clue for that is probably their past actions. Thankfully there are old and new articles about both potential party leaders, along with the other party leaders. I’ve just read a couple about him so far (as well as seeing that interview you mentioned when it got posted online).
