Wasn’t he my banker?
How long before that orange buffoon claims he is responsible for this and Justin Trudeau stepping down?
Wasn’t this guy on The Daily Show a month ago?
Not as sexy as Trudeau. Trump likely cancels all tariff’s going forward.
Good luck Canada, rooting for you!!!! -a normal American who wishes for peace
Bet Trump is happy. Trudeau nearly took off with his gold di… I mean wife.

Here a list of his accomplishments. He’s a very smart man and Canada will be in good hands with Mark.
He’s going to run rings around Trump in negotiations.
He is an economist
He was a banker
He has been the Governor of the Bank of Canada
He has been the Governor of the Bank of England
He’s boring as hell, and I’m ok with that
He can do this.
Elbows up !
Carney.. he was the governor of the bank of England for some time no? It will be interesting to watch what happens now given the current state of north American politics..
Canadian very lucky to having him …very happy for you,❤️
Congratulations Canada
Trump will not like a banker as his neighbour- Carney has seen the damage done! And has the receipts from the sub prime mortgage debacle – a republican effort!
Has there ever been a PM born in the Territories? Is Carney the first?
What’s his stance on Trump & the USA?
We Americans love you Canada! ♥️ The rest of the loud mouth blowhards only copy what their twisted cult leader says, and he’ll be gone soon. I hope we can keep things mostly in tact
Is he the dude who was head of the bank of England? If so fair play he has done well for himself. I want a fan of his fiscal policys as head of the bank but kudos for pushing his career
At this point, everybody needs to do the opposite of what conservatives want. Cons of Canada didn’t want carney, so he is likely the right guy for the job.
Hope he doesn’t bend at the knee
The last 5 years of my life have obviously been wiped from my memory as I still thought he was in the UK working for us 🤦🏻♀️
Huge Canada fan here in California.
Best wishes and please leave the boarder open for me if things go really bad in the US.
How long till trump calls him Governor Carney
Great..another Canadian PM that’s 1000 miles more handsome than the orange dump ..
Since for that nutjob narcissist that’s a big deal. Expect a lot of hatred and retaliation a towards Canadians.
Good luck Mr Carney. God bless Canada. From Ireland.
Just watched his Daily Show interview. Can we have him?
He’s no Justin Trudeau, but I imagine Melania will devour HIM with her eyes, too.
Trump has breathed new life into Canadian liberals! Nothing unites a country like a common enemy.
Is this good?
Hopefully he will steer the liberals to victory in a few months time as well
Masters and doctorate in economics. A man who I can guarantee knows what a tariff is.
