Mark Carney

In times of expanding inequality, the impoverished will follow any politician offering change. We saw this coming out of the Great Depression. There was a strong desire to secure the world economy after both World Wars, in part because of the dangers of wealth moving upward. 

Chrystia Freeland has resigned as finance minister amid bitter feud with Trudeau, setting the stage for an intra-party war as Trump tariffs loom on the horizon.

From electoral reform and Indigenous reconciliation to his pledge to govern in a more open and transparent way, Justin Trudeau’s words keep writing cheques his deeds can’t cash. When it comes to being Canada’s first feminist prime minister, the cheque just bounced — hard.

Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland said on Wednesday that the federal government is moving ahead with guidelines around sustainable investing and corporate climate disclosures, but details on the plans are scarce.

The government has been unable to put any of its own business before the House of Commons for a full week, and the Conservatives on Thursday said that's the result of Liberal "corruption."

Politics used to be about attracting the best and brightest to the challenge of public service. Now, some of its practitioners seem determined to scare them off.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Wednesday that he "can't wait" to get back to Ottawa to get into it with Pierre Poilievre in the House of Commons as he tried to make a case to his own MPs to put up a united front against the Conservatives.

Carney is accomplished and plainly has tremendous capacity. He’s also a technocrat and a mild reformer who is very much of and within the boundaries of the status quo.

Former Bank of Canada governor Mark Carney says he'll advise the Liberal party to flip some of the challenges posed by an increasingly divided and dangerous world into an economic opportunity for Canada.

Former Bank of Canada governor Mark Carney will present his vision for the Liberals' economic policy when he meets with MPs in Nanaimo, B.C., today.

When Pierre Trudeau decided it was time to leave office, he took a walk in the snow. At the rate things are going for Justin Trudeau, that’s a luxury he may not have; the sand on Vancouver Island’s beaches may have to do.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau may be bracing for an earful from his caucus when Liberal MPs gather in Nanaimo, B.C. today to plot their strategy for the coming election year.

Will Mark Carney join the Liberal’s inner ranks to become finance minister is a question feeding speculation across the country’s pundit class. But what would it mean for the climate?

It’s no surprise that companies promoting “net-zero fossil fuel production” — an oxymoron if there ever was one — might be worried about stronger laws against false and misleading environmental claims. 

The former governor of the Bank of Canada has said that Trudeau will lead the Liberals into the next election, but that hasn't stopped Conservatives from mounting political attacks against him. New polling suggests they should be more wary about goading him into joining the race.
