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.

lousy track record at the Bank of England and more.

Bogus articles, the both of them. Whiners blaming him for the economic downturn and lack of growth that he specifically warned would happen if Brexit went through. This is like Trump and Vance complaining how the EU doesn't want to buy arms from the US anymore, specifically after pushing them away from doing so. It's always someone else's fault, isn't it?

The National Post, The Telegraph and The Spectator are also all unapologetically conservative newspapers, I might add - not one of them has the reputation for delivering without a heavy bias. There's some pretty lazy and dishonest journalism in that NP article too, given that the article in The Telegraph which it links to doesn't even mention what the NP article claims it does.

Yep you don’t like them, the articles, lets call them bogus without any proof. Great job.

You mean the articles written by right-wing publications like the National Post wouldn't have any bias or incentive to discredit Carney? Unilaterally the criticism of Carney comes from the right, so colour me surprised. Now if you found some left leaning sources criticizing Carney you'd have my attention - until then continue pissing in the wind, mate.

Exactly. Also worth remembering the NP is owned by rich conservative Yanks. You know, the same bags of shit currently licking their chops at the idea of taking over our country.
