Is Carney a not-so-secret conservative?
Description
Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer examine whether Prime Minister Mark Carney is governing as a conservative despite his Liberal Party affiliation. They analyze his policy reversals on the carbon tax, pipeline approvals, capital gains cuts, and regulatory reform—all resembling Harper-era positions. They explore whether Carney is genuinely conservative, an opportunist seeking global relevance, or simply returning the Liberal Party to its traditional centrist brokerage politics after the progressive Trudeau era, and what this means for Conservative opposition strategy.
