"I know these are dark days. Dark days brought on by a country we can no longer trust," said Carney during his victory speech at the Liberal leadership convention in Ottawa on Sunday night.Thank you, Cleo. Thank you to my wife, Diana, and our children Cleo, Tess, Amelia and Sasha.
I want to thank you, fellow Liberals, for granting me the greatest honour of all: to serve as your new leader. Thank you to those ministers who have remained in their posts to serve Canada directly at this time of great peril. Two months ago, I put my hand up to run for leader because I felt we needed big changes, guided by strong Canadian values.
These same values have guided me in my work to build strong economies. And today, I'm holding on to them as we face the most serious crisis of our generation. The Canadian government is rightly retaliating with our own tariffs that will have maximum impact in the U.S. and minimum impact here in Canada.
Mr. Poilievre wants to shut down Radio-Canada and CBC at a time when disinformation and foreign interference are on the rise.He will end international aid at a time when democracy and human rights are at risk around the world.Pierre Poilievre would let our planet burn. That's not leadership, it's ideology. It's ideology that betrays what we as Canadians value. Each other.Unlike Pierre Poilievre, I have actually worked in the private sector.
So, when they're governed badly — or not at all — they'll deliver enormous wealth for a lucky few and hard times for the rest.
