OTTAWA — Justin Trudeau’s last day as prime minister will be Thursday as Mark Carney and a new cabinet will be sworn in by Governor General Mary Simon on Friday morning.
Rideau Hall confirmed Wednesday evening that Carney will be sworn in as Canada’s 24th prime minister at 11 a.m. on Friday, simultaneously marking the end of Trudeau’s nine year run in the job.
A smile at the memory of K’s favourite line “She’s gone where the goblins go below below below Yoho!”. A great way to avoid saying HELL.
Former senior Canadian intelligence officials say Canada needs to be on the lookout for campaigns aimed at destabilizing the country amid U.S. President Donald Trump’s escalating 51st state threats.
And they told CBC News that the most potent weapon wielded by the Trump administration to advance the cause of annexation would likely not be the intelligence agencies directed by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard.
“I would regard Mr. Musk as a problem,” said Ward Elcock, who headed CSIS for a decade including during the 9/11 attacks and also served as national security adviser. “I think that’s on a number of fronts.”
New Canadian Prime Minister-designate Mark Carney is a creation of the establishment swamp with extensive ties to the Democratic Party in the US, which he’s going to great lengths to bury, The Post can reveal.
In particular, Carney is linked to John Podesta – appointed the controversial custodian of a $375 billion Democrat slush fund by ex-president Joe Biden – who has helped prop up the Canada’s ruling Liberal Party.
The link between Podesta and Carney — the new Liberal Party leader who has controversially been pictured alongside Jeffrey Epstein madame Ghislaine Maxwell — comes via Gerald Butts, a former political advisor to recently departed PM Justin Trudeau for more than a decade.

“… Pierre Trudeau declined to serve in World War II and after the war, “traveled to Josef Stalin’s Soviet Union to participate in regime-sponsored propaganda activities.” The full account of Trudeau’s duty for Stalin would make an interesting read, but in 1989 the fledgling Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) destroyed the dossier on Pierre Trudeau. So it makes sense that, as Frum recalls, that Trudeau “tried to reorient Canada away from the great democratic alliance,” a reference to NATO. The prime minister also regarded the United States as the major threat to peace and the USA as a threat to Canada’s national identity.”
Mark Carney, our next prime minister, has floated a climate policy plan that he says will be better for Canadians than the “divisive (read: widely hated) consumer carbon tax.”
But in reality, Carney’s plan is an exercise in misdirection. Instead of paying the “consumer carbon tax” directly and receiving carbon rebates, Canadians will pay more via higher prices for products that flow from Canada’s “large industrial emitters,” who Carney plans to saddle with higher carbon taxes, indirectly imposing the consumer carbon tax by passing those costs onto Canadians.
The new Canadian PM is intimately familiar with Britain’s Left-wing elites. He may seek to exploit that to his country’s advantage
Mark Carney’s crushing victory in the Liberal Party leadership race means he will become Canada’s next prime minister. The former Bank of Canada and Bank of England governor won 85.9 per cent of the vote, with former deputy prime minister and finance minister Chrystia Freeland finishing a distant second on 8 per cent.
Carney will become the first Canadian PM to have never held elected office. His political inexperience could be a disaster of epic proportions, rivalling that of the inept Justin Trudeau. Yet, as fate would have it, this political novice is in a unique position to resolve one pressing problem.
‘Why don’t I become a circus clown?” That was Mark Carney’s sensible reply when asked in 2012 about ambitions to enter Canadian politics. On Sunday he was elected leader of Canada’s Liberal Party, soon to be sworn in as Prime Minister. Welcome to the circus.
Mr. Carney, a central banker who became a global face of “net-zero” and “ESG” environmental schemes, won 86% of the Liberal leadership vote. His big advantage: He was off in England, or globe-trotting as a United Nations climate envoy, or working for large U.S. firms rather than serving as a minister in Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government (2015-25).
It’s official: Mark Carney has won the prize of prime minister. Now, he must figure out how to keep it. Carney comes to the job with a lot of pluses, chiefly his steady demeanour and economic experience, but also a pile of vulnerabilities. Already the Conservatives are gleefully exploiting them, branding him a liar, sellout, and globalist. They are saturating social media with memes and clever ads, trying to define him before he calls an election, which is likely imminent, considering the latest Nanos poll puts them a mere percentage point ahead of the Liberals.
In the past few months, I have not been alone in suggesting that the people responsible for reporting on President Donald Trump’s tariff threats should read his book about negotiation. If they merely read the second chapter of ‘Art of the Deal,’ there would be a lot less amazement, and a little more confident commentary.
Now that Mark Carney has become the Liberal offering to lead Canada, does he have any books of his own to offer as a window on what he really thinks, that might matter to us, but didn’t come up in a leadership campaign during which little of him was revealed anyway?
OTTAWA — Liberal Leader Mark Carney is hoping to be sworn in as Canada’s 24th prime minister by the end of the week but there are some logistical hurdles like security clearances for senior members of his transition team that must happen first.
Canada’s new unelected prime minister is living, breathing proof that technocrats can’t be trusted.
Canadians have a new prime minister. After a leadership election in the ruling Liberal Party, it’s out with the woke globalist, Justin Trudeau, and in with the woke globalist, Mark Carney.
Extraordinarily, in an age where justified populist rage against an out-of-touch establishment is spreading across the globe, Canadians have ended up with a leader who embodies that very establishment. In many ways, Carney is the technocrat’s technocrat. A bone fide citizen of nowhere.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced on Jan. 6 that he would resign once the Liberal Party of Canada had concluded a leadership race. As of Sunday, March 9, the race has concluded, and the new leader of the party is Mark Carney.
As of March 10, 2025, Carney has not yet officially become the prime minister of Canada but has been elected as the leader of the Liberal Party of Canada, making him the prime minister-designate.
There was no real expectation that Chrystia Freeland would win the Liberal leadership race and make history as Canada’s second female prime minister. Even so, Sunday’s results must have been a blow. With Mark Carney’s landslide win, she placed second – with a mere eight per cent of the vote, compared to nearly 86 per cent for Mr. Carney.
In raw numbers, Mr. Carney received 131,674 votes; Ms. Freeland, only 11,134.
No way to polish that turd. Freeland was Trudeau’s toxic handmaiden.
Politicians in Canada are mostly pretending they’re desperate to crack down on money laundering, according to the stark, well-constructed argument of a University of Calgary law professor, Sanaa Ahmed.
Ahmed says the real reason federal and provincial governments have not made a significant dent in the laundering of dirty money is, basically, because they like the cash in the economy.
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith wants the new leader of the federal Liberal Party to change its approach toward the oil and gas industry and its environmental policies.
Mark Carney won the Liberal leadership on Sunday evening with an overwhelming majority of the vote of party members.
On Monday, Smith re-iterated her calls for an election to be called so a prime minister is in place with a mandate from voters across the country.
