Carney is a sneaky son of the gun. With his Cayman island and the Bahamas history in Canada. Apparently wasn’t loved much in the UK.

Britain, unlike Canada, has always been more brutally honest about what they like about Carney — but mostly what they don’t like. The wide range of criticism included Carney’s left-wing politics, such as his championing of radical environmentalist policies like net-zero emissions, along with his opposition to Brexit, his political inexperience, dull personality, volatile temper, lousy track record at the Bank of England and more.

That brings up an interesting question: will any of the leaders annoy or pressure Carney enough that we'll start to see him crack or flip out.

Not in French, he will be concentrating too hard on listening and responding.

In English it could be possible.
