As clear of an indication that Canadians could get – former central banker and consultant Mark Carney is planning to enter the Liberal leadership race to become Canada’s next prime minister. Strangely, Carney chose the American Daily Show platform as his campaign launch site and not a Canadian media platform. But Carney wil have to compete with Chrystia Freeland for the top job, setting the stage for a very interesting few months ahead.
On this episode of The Northern Dispatch, Harrison, Ryan and Tanya analyze the Liberal leadership race, look at some of Carney’s most infamous moments and take a look back at Canadian history for recent examples of prime ministers without a seat in the House of Commons.
