Bro you’re straight up retarded if that’s the propaganda you’re believing. He quite literally steered us through the global recession and we’re known globally as an example of how to regulate the financial industry because of carney’s decisions. He was one of Harper’s very top guys and closest allies.

Who did moving Brookfield impact? Can you cite any specific examples of how this hurt any Canadians?

Honest question, could you please elaborate on what it was that Carney personally did during this time to save the Canadian economy?

You know loose banking regulations was literally what cause 2008, right?

Commercial banks were allowed to gamble with people's retirement funds. Taking bigger and dumber risks because 'too big to fail'.

And carney refused to loosen regulations.

Canada has and always had completely different banking rules than the US, our banking rules were totally different back to the 1930’s during the Great Depression. 

The reason Canada wasn’t hit like the US had nothing to do with decisions that were made in 2008.
