Too bad for Chrystia Freeland. I think she would have been a great PM. I watched her speak a few times, and she is well-spoken, smart, and has that little edge like she'd really destroy you if you forced her to.
I would have voted for either, though, and I'm happy for Mark Carney. He'll do a great job.
She will be invaluable to the country going forward.
She negotiated the USMCA with Trump in his 1st term.
I think she's kinda like Harris in the US. She probably would have done a good job, but is too similar to (and tainted by) the person before. It's not worth the risk right now to choose her and lose to the cons.
Entirely expected, but still a relief. He is the most likely Liberal candidate to potentially take a win from the Cons or at least take away a majority from them.
Explains why Conservative attack ads have been so focused on Carney lately. They're scared!
Extremely.
A lot of polls put the Cons ahead of the Liberals by a few points, but trailing if Carney was leader.
