Poilievre says the federal election can't just be about Donald Trump
Conservative leader pitches policies to address cost of living, housing and energy sector
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre mounted a defence of his campaign messaging Monday, saying he has no qualms about focusing on issues like the housing crisis, cost of living concerns and relatively weak economic growth, even as some of his critics say he should go all in on Canada-U.S. relations.
In the first week of this federal campaign, Poilievre has so far largely stuck to the playbook that catapulted him and his party to the lead in the polls for much of the last two years.
He's been rolling out such measures as an income tax cut, a TFSA top-up and a tough-on-crime agenda with mandatory life sentences in prison for drug traffickers, while also prosecuting the Liberal government's tenure — even as U.S. President Donald Trump's threats loom large.
He made those announcements last week at sites that could be seen as a nod to U.S. trade tensions — a company that works with steel and a B.C. sawmill — but largely avoided talking about the cross-border dispute.
Trump's name gets scant mention at his rallies or news conferences, unless he's asked by reporters to comment.
That has prompted some party grandees, like senior strategist Kory Teneyecke, to say Poilievre is missing the mark by not aggressively taking on Trump, regarded by many Canadians as a threat and a menace.
Poilievre's party has also lost its lead over the governing Liberals, according to CBC Poll Tracker, causing anxiety among some campaign staff who say there's no clear plan to get it back.
Poilievre said Monday he'll make no apologies for pushing what he calls a "Canada first agenda," which is largely focused on rectifying perceived Liberal failures.
He said he will talk about how to address U.S. tensions — his capital gains tax pitch Sunday was specifically designed to drive investment at home, he said — but won't ignore the other issues that have emerged out of what he called the "lost Liberal decade."
"Some people have said I should stop talking about the doubling of housing costs that have denied an entire generation the chance to own a home after the lost Liberal decade. They say we shouldn't be debating why single moms are lined up at food banks in record numbers," Poilievre said.
He said he will stand up for the millennial women "whose biological clock is running out faster than they can afford to buy a home and have kids."
"They suggest that we shouldn't debate why 50,000 of our citizens have lost their lives to drug overdoses under the radical Liberal drug policies," he continued.
"My purpose in politics is to restore Canada's promise," he said. "So we will continue, despite calls to the contrary, to talk about those things even if I am the only leader in the country that offers any change."
There's a reason why Poilievre wants to talk about those issues more than the Trump factor.
A recent Angus Reid Institute poll suggests non-Liberal survey respondents are most concerned about the cost of living and inflation, while the Liberal ones, both longtime supporters and recent switchers, say Canada's relationship with the U.S., including tariffs, is the most important issue.
Poilievre said today he will stand against "unjustified threats by President Trump," and he pitched a longtime Conservative promise to build a national energy corridor to fast-track projects like an east-west pipeline to finally move more Alberta oil and gas to eastern markets.
Liberal Leader Mark Carney has promised something similar.
Poilievre said a government led by him will streamline environmental reviews and create a "pre-approved transport corridor," which will see all levels of government provide legally binding commitments to approve projects like transmission lines, railways and pipelines that run along the route.
The party is promising to work with First Nations to ensure some economic benefit flows to their communities.
Poilievre said building more energy infrastructure will help Canada stand on its own two feet and lessen its dependence on the Americans. So much of Canada's oil and gas is exported to that one market, making the country beholden to a single customer. It also deprives central and eastern parts of the country from Canadian energy, forcing refineries there to rely on foreign supplies from the U.S., Saudi Arabia and Nigeria, among other places.
Poilievre said he won't stand for that anymore. Carney has signalled he won't, either.
Just before calling the federal election, Carney met with the premiers to hash out a new agreement that will see Ottawa slash some red tape as part of the approvals process on major projects.
He's calling it a "one project, one review" permit system to reduce duplicative federal-provincial processes.
"It's time to build," Carney said.

NOTEBOOK: Carney faces accusations of plagiarism for doctoral thesis
Editor’s note: The following are brief summaries of just four of the federal election stories available across the Postmedia network.
Carney accused of plagiarism for doctoral thesis
Liberal Leader Mark Carney has been accused of taking other people’s ideas as his own in the federal election campaign. It isn’t new. The National Post obtained a copy of Carney’s 1995 thesis for his doctorate in economics from Oxford University titled “The Dynamic Advantage of Competition.” It shows 10 instances of apparent plagiarism, according to the judgment of three university academics who reviewed the material. In several sections of his thesis, Carney used full quotes, paraphrases, or slightly modified quotes from four previous works without proper acknowledgement or attribution. Carney’s campaign at first provided a statement from his doctoral supervisor at Oxford University. “I believe you are mischaracterizing this work. As an academic of nearly 40 years, I see no evidence of plagiarism in the thesis you cited nor any unusual academic practices,” said Margaret Meyer, Official Fellow of Economics at Nuffield College, in the provided statement.

Liberal candidate sparks concern over Phoenix pay scandal
The Liberals are backing Claude Guay, a former IBM Canada executive, as their candidate in the Montreal riding of LaSalle–Émard–Verdun, but his role in the scandal-plagued Phoenix payroll system is raising concerns, National Post reported. Public sector unions question the government’s commitment to fixing the pay system, which is managed by the Public Pay Centre in Miramichi. The system has left thousands of federal workers with payroll issues since its launch in 2016. IBM received about $784 million for the project, despite ongoing failures. In 2017 Guay acknowledged mistakes made in the Phoenix rollout, but critics argue his candidacy sends the wrong message to federal employees still affected.

Novia Scotia MP returns to politics after brief exit
Just three months after stepping away from politics to focus on family, former cabinet minister Sean Fraser is making a comeback as a Liberal candidate, National Post reported. In a statement on Tuesday, Fraser said the upcoming election is too important to sit out and rejoined at the request of Liberal Leader Mark Carney. Fraser’s return replaced another candidate in Central Nova, in Nova Scotia, who had campaigned for just a few hours. Fraser’s departure in December came amid low party support, but with polls showing growing Liberal support, he could reclaim a cabinet spot. This follows Transport Minister Anita Anand’s reversal to leave politics just one month after her departure. Click the link to read the full story www.nationalpost.com.
Poilievre pledges to keep French Radio-Canada alive
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has vowed to maintain CBC’s French language Radio-Canada services while continuing his push to “defund the CBC,” National Post reported. His Quebec-focused platform, released Wednesday, does not mention CBC’s English services, raising questions about how he would separate the two. Poilievre is actively campaigning in Quebec, where the Conservatives lag behind the Liberals and the Bloc Québécois. His platform acknowledges the decline of the French language and pledges support for Quebec and francophone cultural funding. He also promises to give Quebec more control over temporary immigration. Poilievre held a press conference and rally in Quebec City on Wednesday as part of his ongoing outreach. Click the link to read the full story www.nationalpost.com.

Poilievre's Conservative Party embracing language of mainstream conspiracy theories
Tory leader's summer stump speeches include ramped-up rhetoric about the World Economic Forum
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has been hitting the summer barbecue circuit with ramped-up rhetoric around debunked claims that the World Economic Forum is attempting to impose its agenda on sovereign governments.
It is, some experts suggest, another sign that some conspiracy theories are moving from the fringes of the internet to mainstream thinking, as people's distrust of government grows.
In speeches to Conservative supporters across Canada, Poilievre has promised that none of his ministers will attend the international organization's conferences, including the annual meeting typically held in Davos, Switzerland.
"It's far past time we rejected the globalist Davos elites and bring home the common sense of the common people," said a Saturday fundraising email.
The Conservative Party also recently sent out mailers with a poll asking people to tell Prime Minister Justin Trudeau who they think the prime minister should stand with: working Canadians or the World Economic Forum.
The wording implies Trudeau's cabinet is beholden to the latter.
Poilievre did not agree to an interview on the matter. His spokesperson instead pointed The Canadian Press to a clip of him at a rally in Penticton, B.C., in July, expressing concerns over the government invading people's personal privacy and financial decisions.
"There will be no mandatory digital ID in this country, and I will ban all of my ministers and top government officials from any involvement in the World Economic Forum," Poilievre said, chuckling as he received lengthy applause for the remark.

cabinet met in January 2023. (Submitted by Zimo Wang)
Ottawa's history with the WEF
Canada has long participated in WEF events. Former Conservative prime minister Stephen Harper and his cabinet ministers attended the summit regularly. Trudeau attended in person in 2016 and 2018, and his ministers have attended as well. Liberal Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland went to the most recent annual summit in January.
On digital IDs, the federal government has been looking at technology to create a national digital identification document to help people access government services. It has not been promoted as something that will become mandatory.
Last winter, a conspiracy theory circulating on social media suggested Trudeau was going to require provinces to sign on to digital ID systems for their residents in order to get billions in new health-care funding. That conspiracy was also debunked.
Duane Bratt, a political science professor at Mount Royal University in Calgary, said some people have long embraced conspiracies, but now they have moved into mainstream politics.
"The big shift that we have seen is that it is now being promoted by someone who could be prime minister," said Bratt.
Poilievre peddled the WEF control claims during the Conservative leadership race in 2022, and it has emerged again as a regular talking point following the federal byelection in southern Manitoba, said Bratt.

speeches to Conservative supporters across Canada, Poilievre has

including the annual meeting typically held in Davos, Switzerland. (Justin Tang/The Canadian Press)
In that contest in Portage–Lisgar, the Conservatives were looking to beat back a growing challenge from the People's Party of Canada. Maxime Bernier, the leader of that party who has long accused the WEF of having a globalist agenda, ran in the byelection.
The Conservatives attacked him for having attended the Davos summit when he was Harper's foreign affairs minister in 2008.
Bratt said Poilievre's embrace of conspiracy theories could be because he's attempting to steal back votes from the PPC.
"The question is does he really believe it or is he just pandering to people, and will he pivot again if he becomes prime minister," Bratt said.
Pandemic as a trigger
Kawser Ahmed, a politics professor at the University of Winnipeg with a research specialty in conspiracy theories, said the number and uptake of conspiracy theories began to grow after the 2016 presidential election in the United States, aided by social media and encrypted messaging apps.
But Ahmed said the biggest trigger was the COVID-19 pandemic.
"At that time, whatever decisions government took, it was explained to some corner of our citizens — in line with conspiracy theories — that the government is controlling you, the government has asked to give you a vaccine, the government has asked not to go out and so forth," said Ahmed.
It's a sentiment politicians have learned to pick up on, and Bratt believes that many people aren't willing to reject a politician just because they peddle false claims or conspiracies.
"There's a lot of ideas that are now moving into the mainstream that are simply not supported by science, evidence or facts," he said. "But it doesn't matter and some of those politicians have been elected, like the current premier of Alberta."
United Conservative Party Premier Danielle Smith has said she is in lockstep with Poilievre, and will having nothing to do with the World Economic Forum.

Populism has driven politicians to feed into conspiracy theories because they need votes, and fear is a great motivator, said Ahmed. They get less interest peddling for votes using their record.
"It's very easy to appeal to people that something is a threat," he said. "For example, your identity, your livelihood, your religious values."
Ahmed said it is affecting our democracy, pitting groups against each other, creating suspicion and harming national security by spreading misinformation that eventually affects policy.

MARK CARNEY & CHRYSTIA FREELAND MAKE FOOLS OF THEMSELVES IN THE FRENCH & ENGLISH LANGUAGE DEBATE
The train wreck of a French Liberal Leadership debate was last night February 24, 2025. Both Mark Carney and Chrystia Freeland managed to make complete fools of themselves, for different reasons.
Carney said, “So we agree with Hamas,” and then went onto say that Pierre Poilievre wants to “abolish Quebec”. Granted, he was likely trying to say the opposite re Hamas and that Poilievre is trying to abolish CBC, but his French is reportedly so poor he got these things mixed up.
While Freeland’s French is better, she made a complete fool of herself using and quoting a 4-year-old in a propaganda war with President Donald Trump and then went onto say that Trump is a bigger threat than WWII.
WATCH this short vid clip Feb. 24, 2025, which captures the French debate highlights.
The English debate did not improve. the Liberal leadership debate went from unhinged to insane.
Chrystia Freeland threatened nukes to protect Canada from the US
Freeland and Mark Carney both want a new world order without Trump and the United States.
Carney refuses to disclose his own business financials
Fact check on Carney who lied that he moved Brookfield, the company he formerly chaired, moved to the US
WATCH this short vid clip Feb. 25, 2025, which captures the English debate highlights.
Also, they refused the appeal of candidate and former MP Ruby Dhalla, who is not allowed to participate in the debate. We originally reported on this on the SOG podcast here. Many people believe that the Liberals did not want Dhalla to challenge Carney in the debate as she has been trying to move the Liberals to the centre, and has been representing what is now seen as more right-wing ideas, like criticizing her party’s obsession with the World Economic Forum (WEF) and globalism. Reportedly, the Liberal party says they are keeping — read “seizing” — her volunteers’ donations supporting her leadership bid. THIS is still developing; we will keep you informed and updated with the breaking news you need to know
MARK CARNEY DEEP DIVE: WILL THE REAL MARK CARNEY PLEASE STAND UP

MARK CARNEY THE SUPER GLOBALIST
Mark Carney is a super globalist who has three passports. A little-known fact is that he has citizenship in three countries: Ireland, Great Britain and Canada.
In 2023, while discussing the transition to a green economy at the World Economic Forum, Mark Carney highlighted his European identity by stating, “As a European, I am a European actually. Yeah, an Irish citizen. Speaking as a European…”
If Carney is elected, he may revoke the other citizenships, so we have screen captured this fact for you, so it does not disappear.
CANADA CAUGHT IN THE CROSS-HAIRS OF A TWO FRONT ECONOMIC PROXY WAR
Canada is stuck in the middle between The US President Donald Trump and net zero globalists who are using Canada as their last stand. If Mark Carney wins the Liberal leadership and becomes Canada’s prime minister without even holding a seat as a Member of Parliament, he is promising to impose both a “corporate” carbon tax against Canadian companies as well as a carbon tariff, called a “carbon border adjustment mechanism” against countries that do not have a carbon tax. Strategically, Carney and those the globalists he pals around with who are pushing “net zero” are seeking to isolate Trump and the US, who is dumping all these expensive “green” policies that are killing the economy and our way of life. Steve Bannon recently said if Canada imposes a carbon tariff like what Bannon is talking about, it would be viewed as a hostile act by the Trump administration.
The Carney cartel and its plans to impose their net zero on the world as a new means for them to make more money, does not bode well for our economy and the financial survival of normal people like you and I who are stuck in a two-front war, we do not control.
But so far it looks like Trump dumping the “net zero” is winning, not the globalists, shown by Canada’s 4 big banks dumping their affiliation with the “Net-Zero Banking Alliance” that Mark Carny is linked with, two days after he announced his leadership bid for the Liberal Party of Canada.
That is why Carney threatening to impose “emergency powers” to impose his policies should not be taken lightly; this is a real and present threat against Canadians. It should not be assumed he will only use these emergency powers for inter-provincial trade and pipelines. considering the Liberals record on “emergency powers” and that it was Carney himself who during the Freedom Convoy protests of 2022 was advocating that the Liberal government send in tanks to suppress the protest. This sort of authoritarian viewpoint could just as easily apply to his vision of “net zero”. As we demonstrate in this Mark Carney deep dive, these carbon-centric net zero policies could and will likely enrich himself and definitely will enrich his banker and globalist friends who are invested in these “green” schemes, eagerly anticipating these policies implementation here in Canada.
But Canada is also in the crosshairs of second economic war between the between the US and China. There is crossover as it is the globalist leaders who are pretending ignorance, stalling and outright refusing to fight the fentanyl epidemic fostered by an open border and mass immigration policy. Watch our pod here at the beginning where the Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly openly rolls her eyes when the reporter asks about Trump’s demands on the border and fentanyl.
the Liberals are visibly still in denial even though they have finally appointed a fentanyl “czar” who is a former deputy commissioner of the RCMP, Trudeau government deputy minister and Trudeau advisor. Where the money is coming from for the border security plan with the House of Commons still suspended and where the 10,000 “frontline troops” has still not been clarified.
Investigative journalist Sam Cooper whom I interviewed recently about this, communicated how fentanyl and money laundering are being used and how very few of these criminals are going to jail. The rise in the price of real estate, the escalating crime in our cities, this is all related to the fentanyl gangs and Chinese agents and Mexican cartels using Canada also for money laundering. Cooper recently said:
China “looks at Canada as a beachhead…all the real estate money. The drug concerns…China is using Canada as a proxy; I can't say it any simpler. That’s the American concern.”
MARK CARNEY, CHINA’S MAN
We went through two of Mark Carney’s speeches and we found that he is wildly supportive of replacing the U.S. dollar as the world currency of choice with the Chinese yuan, or with a "new Synthetic Hegemonic Currency" (SHC), to be used to replace the U.S. dollar as the world’s reserve currency. He also advocated for central banks to collaborate and replace the U.S. dollar to decrease its “domineering influence” on trade around the world.
First in our Mark Carney investigative series: Who is the REAL Mark Carney? We examine does Mark Carney want to TANK the US Dollar?
Clearly, Mark Carney is a clear and present danger not only to Canada but President Donald Trump and the United States. He is clearly not working in the interests of Canada and our closest trading partner but is working in tandem with the globalists and communist China whom he has served much of his adult life.
MARK CARNEY THE SELF PROCLAIMED “ELITIST” & “GLOBALIST”: WE BRING YOU THE RECEIPTS

Can a man on this many foreign Boards of Directorships REALLY be working for Canada?
Mark Carney went on CBC to declare the majority of his 20 board directorships are “philanthropic,” so we decided to do a deep dive fact check to see if this was true.
Carney recently also described himself as an “elitist” and the “globalist” which is exactly what we need.”
When interviewed by CBC’s Rosemary Barton about the “20 companies” and organizations he is connected to, Barton did not push back on Carney when he claimed the “majority are philanthropic”. Neither did she pushback to confirm the dates of resignation for these 20 private interests and foreign entities Mark Carney is associated with and which he is making money from. His conflicts of interest and reported access to confidential cabinet briefings, could provide opportunities for insider trading for Carney and his associates, Barton did not clarify this either. We show this exchange with Barton on our Feb. 23, Stand on Guard pod (3:40).
Carney told CBC in this interview he does not have to disclose his financial information at this point in time and presumably he will not do so until required (because he is not a Member of Parliament, so he is not under the ethics rules of the House of Commons).
We wanted to bring to you our research and receipts, showing Mark Carney’s connections and conflicts of interest related to all of these companies and globalist organizations. We actually found 21 (links below and screen captures included as some of these links may disappear).
We have researched this list of economic connections by cross referencing information available on google, the World Economic Forum, and Elon Musk’s Grok. Carney has resigned from some of these companies but has not confirmed his status with the full list of 21.
Keep asking questions, so YOU can decide if Mark Carney’s ties are REALLY “philanthropic” and if he is or isn’t still connected to these entities. And what is he gaining by pushing his net zero agenda? Use our deep dive to help support your own research.
Share this Substack with friends and family so people are aware of who Mark Carney REALLY is.
THE LIST OF 21 COMPANIES & ORGANIZATIONS THAT ARE A PART OF MARK CARNEY’S GLOBALIST NETWORK

MARK CARNEY IS A MEMBER OF MANY BOARDS OF DIRECTORSHIPS. WE HAVE TRACKED DOWN AND LOOKED UP 21 OF THEM.
Brookfield is Mark Carney’s most reported business connection in the Canadian legacy media. Brookfield has more than one name and the company and its subsidiaries are truly globalist with its headquarters reportedly moved to the USA just before Mark Carney announced his Liberal leadership run. But the company still may partially be located in British Columbia and still retains its original name.
The new name of the original Brookfield Asset Management Inc. is Brookfield Corporation, changed: December 9, 2022.
BUT Brookfield Asset Management still exists!
Brookfield Corporation (ticker: BN) is the parent company, encompassing a broader range of operations including real estate, infrastructure, and other investments.
Brookfield Asset Management Ltd. (ticker: BAM) is the standalone asset management business, focused on managing investments and funds, including alternative assets like private equity and real estate.
THE CARNEY LIE ABOUT MOVING BROOKFIELD HQ TO THE UNITED STATES
During the English Liberal Leadership debate February 26, 2025, Carney claimed that Brookfield decision to move its headquarters to the United States was made after he left in January. Member of Parliament Michael Barrett, however, held a press conference the next day where he explained that Carney sent a letter to Brookfield shareholders dated December 1, 2024, and it was signed by Carney himself, urging shareholders to support Brookfield moving to the USA.
Brookfield announced their headquarters move from Canada to the United States in October 2024. This was before Mark Carney announced his bid for the Liberal leadership race, but it was while he was an official advisor to the Trudeau Government regarding the economy.

This shareholder letter is absolute proof Carney was part of the decision to move Brookfield, and he actually facilitated it. Brookfield’s move also took place also while Carney was the official economic advisor for Canada as the Liberal Chair of the Leader’s Task Force in Economic Growth. This is all showing Carney is not pulling for Canada, while he is stoking a tariff war with the USA and also pushing forward his “net zero” schemes that will impoverish average people while making globalists like himself rich.
CARNEY AND BROOKFIELD TIMELINE:
Sept 4, 2024 Carney announced as official Chair of the Leader’s Task Force on Economic Growth
Oct. 31, 2024 Brookfield Announces exit from Canada, reported Nov. 1, 2024 in the Financial Post
December 1, 2024 Mark Carney writes & sends letter to shareholder to support the move to New York
Jan. 16, 2025 Carney announced Liberal leadership bid + steps down from Brookfield
Feb. 25, 2025 Carney lies and pretends he didn’t move the HQ out of Canada


And now with Mark Carney set to be crowned Liberal leader and then the Prime Minister of Canada, while he does not have a seat in the House of Commons, he has warned us that he will invoke both a corporate carbon tax and a carbon tariff called the “carbon border adjustment mechanism.” and he will use “emergency powers” to move forward with his policies. Brookfield itself will be eagerly anticipating this new economic restructuring, part of a long term “net zero” reset of our economy. A plan that many bankers and globalists have been pushing for, as we will demonstrate further on in this Substack.
As Canadians, we are stuck in the middle, physically located here in Canada, we do not have the privilege, like Carney’s globalist comrades to pull up stakes and move to New York to avoid the forthcoming Carney carnage with double carbon taxes and the pending tariff war.
CARNEY BEHAVING VERY BADLY AS CHAIR OF BROOKFIELD
Tax Dodger?
According to New Democratic Party Member of Parliament, Niki Ashton, on March 6, 2025, she said that Mark Carney’s business has a record of pushing for “wealth accumulation by the rich at the expense of the workers and Canadian communities.”
She also said, “Mark Carney is the poster person for Canada’s broken system and the hollowing out of Canada that has made us so vulnerable today.”
Ashton went onto say that in a 2023 report from the Center of International Corporate Tax Accountability and Research entitled Brookfield’s Bermuda Base: Is Canada’s Largest Alternative Asset Manager dodging Taxes? “Brookfield Asset Management dodged a jaw-dropping $6.5 billion all on its own.”
“According to Canadians for Tax Fairness in 2021 Canada lost $30 billion in corporate tax revenue to offshore havens. This means that one in five tax dollars of corporations diverted from the Canadian public came from Brookfield alone. This is obscene and Canadians are paying the price today.”
In the news conference Ashton said that this means that 1 in 5 Canadian tax dollars that was diverted to offshore accounts came from Brookfield under Mark Carney’s management. She called this “obscene” and called on Carney to come clean. We covered the MP Niki Ashton news conference here (11:50).
According to a profound post on X:
“Let’s call it what it is: Mark Carney's advice and Brookfield's tax evasion. He will be raising taxes for everyday Canadians, all while making his global businesses more wealthy.”
Pandemic Profiteering?
Center of International Corporate Tax Accountability and Research and the Canadians for Tax Fairness research indicates that the receipt of pandemic subsidies (the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy (CEWS)), highlighting that the Canadian Government pandemic spending from several of Carney’s companies may have found their way to Bermuda:
“The report found that Brookfield had “at least six wholly-owned subsidiaries that collected CEWS plus sizable majority stakes in two additional CEWS recipients.”31 The report noted that “ownership of five CEWS recipients passes entirely through a Bermuda-based subsidiary… [and] about 20% of Brookfield’s majority ownership in CWC Energy passes through three companies in the Cayman Islands, and another in Bermuda.”
DT Cochrane, 7 February 2023, Canadians for Tax Fairness, “Public funds for private gains: Canada’s most profitable corporations received pandemic subsidies while avoiding billions in taxes”.
Pushing Net Zero on Canadians & World While His Company Employs “Green Washing”?
Critics also contend this company uses “greenwashing” to sell itself using the “climate” to cloak its many unethical activities. Brookfield and its entities tout “green” language in their annual reports even though they invest in many coal, oil and gas ventures, many of which are foreign, not located in Canada.
Lima Peru Court Case Active February 2025
Former Liberal President Stephen LeDrew highlighted on his X that Brookfield is in court in New York as of February 25, 2025, regarding “massive profits off toxic contracts” and “bribes”.
Toronto Sun also published portions of the testimony, where in court Mayor Lopez Allaga explained:
“Canadians need to know the way Brookfield, under Mr. Mark Carney, operates here. They need to know how they obtain money from the suffering of poor people.”
The Sun goes onto explain how Brookfield is charging a toll for the poorest people of Peru for a road they own that is nearly one third of the average person’s income:
“In January 2017, shortly after Brookfield bought the rights to the concession, protests about the high tolls ended with riot police dragging protesters away. There have been ongoing complaints about the high tolls imposed on residents living in the poorest areas.
“The tolls not only impact motorists, it drives up cab and bus fares, as well.
“Aliaga said that imposing such high tolls on the poorest people in Peru is a violation of human rights, but the contract that was obtained through bribes and then purchased by Brookfield continues to hurt the poorest of the poor.
The mayor emphasizes:
“Mr. Carney needs to explain to Canadian citizens, what is his role in Latin America and in particular, Peru.”


Other research indicates that under Carney’s tenure they have been linked to deforestation in South America in 2022, and they are being investigated for “environmental violations,” in Brazil.
The bad behaviour continues for Carney, the icon of carbon net zero, with a coal operation out of Australia profiting off of selling a massive amount of coal to China. X account TableSalt113 dug up:
“New research has unearthed that Mark Carney's firm, Brookfield asset management owned an Australian coal shipping port, the Dalrymple Bay Terminal which supplied China with 5.8 MILLION TONNES of dirty coal/yr.”


Canada Proud also found details of the coal terminal in Australia that Brookfield is making millions off of within the Mining Monthly.
This is at the same time that Mark Carney’s long-term influence on the Trudeau government has been limiting Canada’s energy production and capping energy development with laws and regulations.
KRN NOTE: These are the three entities normally mentioned in Canada’s mainstream, legacy media. Mark Carney’s association with the next companies and elite, globalist entities are not as well known.




Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero (GFANZ), Co-Chair (works w/Larry Fink Blackrock & Bloomberg)
KRN NOTE: This GFANZ net zero group is referred to as a “cartel” by the United States’ Congressional Judiciary committee and has been under investigation for most of 2024.
The committee states:
“The climate cartel has declared war on the American way of life. The climate cartel is waging a “Global World War” for net zero against disfavored American companies, including those in the fossil fuel, aviation and farming industries that allow Americans to drive, fly and eat.”
There are two recent US Judiciary Committee reports targeting Mark Carney’s net zero cartel:
National Post’s Terry Newman recently covered this green cartel/ net zero cartel in an article:






Chatham House, Royal Institute of Int’l Affairs,
-Mark Carney served as the chair of the Chatman House’s Panel of Senior Advisers, a role he took on in 2022. The link page is now gone but we saved the page showing his involvement as a screen capture below.
Reportedly: Mark Carney is the sitting president of Chatham House, one of the most influential foreign policy think tanks in the world. Given Chatham House’s deep involvement in shaping global governance, it is safe to assume that the policies it champions will soon find their way into Canada. These policies - ranging from pandemic control to climate mandates and mass migration - are designed to erode national sovereignty in favour of centralized, technocratic rule.
The Chatham House meetings are so secretive that no reporters or outsiders are allowed (which is why most people have never heard of it).
Interestingly, George Soros’ Open Society Foundation is a big funder of Chatham House. Here again we see the billionaire oligarchs pulling the strings behind the scenes. Yet most Canadians believe this “outsider” got choppered in as Prime Minister to save us from The Bad Orange Man.

There is a lot of overlap between these entities and companies. Many of the private multinational companies would want Mark Carney involved as sort of stamp of approval, to greenwash their high carbon emissions. This is a similar sort of scheme to how Walmart received environmentalist David Suzuki favourable blog comments when Walmart supported the carbon tax. Suzuki gives his environmentalist stamp of approval thus making the company more “sustainable” and the support can mean the company will not be targetted in the future by negative media or other attacks from extremists. This can be very lucrative scheme for the one who gets to do the stamping, like Suzuki and also Carney.
A good example of this is when in November 2021 some of the world’s biggest financial institutions agreed to “mobilize trillions of dollars to help shift the global economy toward cleaner energy” agreeing to “pay for the enormous costs of climate change.” A coalition of banks, investors and insurers that collectively control $130 trillion in assets pledged to make “climate change a central focus.” Mark Carney was quoted:
“We now have the essential plumbing in place to move climate change from the fringes to the forefront of finance so that every financial decision takes climate change into account.”
THIS is what the Americans last year started calling a cartel because they are trying to force banks and companies to participate, even though it will be the consumers of energy who pay the higher price in the end and these costs continue to pile on with more and more regulations and over taxation until the society collapses.
These overlapping environmental entities aka “the cartel” have been accused of also not living up to their promises for the developing nations. Oxfam did a recent audit of the big fund and released this in late 2024:
“Up to $41 billion in World Bank climate finance not being properly tracked. Nearly 40 percent of all climate funds disbursed by the Bank over the past seven years— is unaccounted for due to poor record-keeping practices.” (screen captures below)
Of course, the World Bank denied this in a counter statement.


So, how does Mark Carney claim that even these environmental entities are “philanthropic” with so much money involved and with so much money now also going “missing”?
CARNEY SOLICITED GOVERNMENT FOR FUND MANAGEMENT WHILE SENIOR ADVISOR TO THE PRIME MINISTER AND TIES TO TELESAT
Carney reportedly shopped around the idea of Brookfield “managing a $50 billion pooled pension fund that would be directed towards Canadian assets,” after he was appointed as the special economic advisor to Trudeau and current sitting chair of Brookfield.
He was seeking to “manage” $50 billion of Canadian pensions.
“This means that Carney is taking on a new job at the right hand of the prime minister at the precise moment that he oversees a company seeking to secure one of the largest contributions of federal cash in the country’s history.”
Details of the fund were first disclosed in a exposé by The Logic, and then confirmed by both Financial Post and The Globe and Mail.
Carney is also “personally connected” with another project involving billions of federal dollars transferred to a private company called Telesat, which is an Ottawa-based firm that was the recipient of a $2.14 billion federal loan in September 2024, expanding its broadband internet satellites.
Carney and Telesat CEO Dan Goldberg have often been described as “good friends,” including in a 2019 profile by the Ottawa Business Journal. As recently as June, a photographer for the Ottawa Citizen snapped a photo of Carney embracing Goldberg and sharing a laugh at a conservation gala.
After this investment Telesat shares have increased significantly according to Simply Wallstreet:
Despite an already strong run, Telesat Corporation (TSE:TSAT) shares have been powering on, with a gain of 26% in the last thirty days. Looking back a bit further, it's encouraging to see the stock is up 81% in the last year.
Did Carney own any shares in Telesat when this contract was awarded the $2.14 B around the same time, Carney was appointed the senior economic advisor to Trudeau?
We simply do not know because there is a loophole that Carney is exploiting where he is not under the scrutiny of the ethics watchdog for conflicts of interest and corruption, because he is still NOT elected as a Member of Parliament. After Carney’s appointment as senior economic advisor, Conservatives called for Carney voluntarily disclose all his corporate interests. He has refused to do so up to this point in time, and it is not clear if he will voluntarily release his financial information after he is appointed as the next Prime Minister of Canada, prior to being elected as a Member of Parliament.
MARK CARNEY’S MANIFESTO

Mark Carney’s book was reviewed by Peter Foster for the National Post in a column entitled, Mark Carney, man of destiny, wants to revolutionize society. It won't be pleasant. In the review Foster said the following:
“In his book Value(s): Building a Better World for All, Mark Carney, former governor both of the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England, claims that western society is morally rotten, and that it has been corrupted by capitalism, which has brought about a “climate emergency” that threatens life on earth. This, he claims, requires rigid controls on personal freedom, industry and corporate funding.”
This quote has been floating around the social media on X. This book review is the source of it. The review also said:
“Carney’s views are important because he is UN Special Envoy on Climate Action and Finance. He is also an adviser both to British Prime Minister Boris Johnson on the next big climate conference in Glasgow, and to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
“Since the advent of the COVID pandemic, Carney has been front and centre in the promotion of a political agenda known as the “Great Reset,” or the “Green New Deal,” or “Building Back Better.” All are predicated on the claim that COVID, and its disruption of the global economy, provides a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity not just to regulate climate, but to frame a more fair, more diverse, more inclusive, more safe and more woke world.
“Carney draws inspiration from, among others, Marx, Engels and Lenin, but the agenda he promotes differs from Marxism in two key respects. First, the private sector is not to be expropriated but made a “partner” in reshaping the economy and society. Second, it does not make a promise to make the lives of ordinary people better, but worse. Carney’s Brave New World will be one of severely constrained choice, less flying, less meat, more inconvenience and more poverty: “Assets will be stranded, used gasoline powered cars will be unsaleable, inefficient properties will be unrentable,” he promises.
Former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss, who is very familiar with Mark Carney’s record in the UK, agrees with this book review. She says he prints too much money and calls his net zero obsession a “new form of socialism. She encourages Canadians to, “Resist, Canadians, Resist”.
I interviewed her about her assessment of Mark Carney here:
Carney’s manifesto goes onto further communicate his “values” about the net zero carbon transition and the need for carbon taxes, which he is pushing onto the people of Canada.
“One of the most important initiatives is carbon pricing. The best approach is a revenue-neutral, progressive carbon tax…The Canadian federal carbon pricing framework is a model for others. It is also carefully navigated teh complexities of Canadian federalism…”
-Mark Carney, from Values
Even though today Carney is now distancing himself from the “consumer carbon tax” because the Conservatives under Pierre Poilievre have exposed all of its fallacies, as shown in this deep dive, he is not distancing himself from net zero and the carbon tax, if elected he plans to instead double down on Canada with a new experimental carbon tariff plus a corporate carbon tax.
THE DOUBLE THREAT FROM MARK CARNEY AND THE TARIFF WAR
Tiff Macklin, the governor of the Bank of Canada communicated this week (26:40) the impacts of US tariffs and Canadian counter-tariffs on the Canadian economy. If you read between the lines of what he says, these “no growth” impacts combined with the new hidden carbon tax (carbon tariff and corporate carbon tax) proposed by Liberals; and add on the US reprisal tariffs to Canada’s counter tariffs. This new triflation could drive Canada into a new Great Depression.
Macklin went onto also state that we can expect two years of recession and there “will be no bounce back.” Due to inflationary pressures he recommends that the Government of Canada does NOT do the same things as during the pandemic, ie: go hog wild printing money. But, due to the tariff threat being used as an election campaign strategy in Liberal leadership race, upcoming federal election, as well as the Ontario provincial election, all happening simultaneously it is doubtful that any of the politicians will listen to his recommendations on this front.
The only solution to keep Canada out of a depressionary tailspin, is an election now to dump the Trudeau - Carney Liberal globalists.
So, we can move forward quickly with a Canada First policy that is aligned with what Americans also want, which is a secure border with real boots on the ground so they can inspect more than 1% of shipping containers in the ports. With Canadian authorities able to work shoulder to shoulder with them arresting, prosecuting and jailing fentanyl kingpins and money laundering in a new campaign aligned with what they plan to do in the US.
This would also give Canadians what they are also wanting, freedom from tyranny, over taxation, less immigration, and more stability with a stricter border and stronger laws to deal with the crime and chaos 10 years of Justin Trudeau has cursed Canada with.
CARNEY CONNECTIONS WITH GHISLAINE MAXWELL AND JEFFREY EPSTEIN

Photos came to light in January 2025 of Mark Carney and Ghislaine Maxwell and Carney’s wife Diana Fox, at an event in Great Britain. Maxwell of course, is serving a 20-year jail sentence, convicted for recruiting, grooming minor girls in a sex-trafficking operation run by Jeffrey Epstein,
The photos are from 2013 at an event hosted at Cornbury Park, the estate of Carney's sister-in-law Lady Tania Rotherwick. This was when Carney was Bank of England governor. British media says it is called a “Wilderness Festival” which was described both as “a U.K. music and arts festival that brands itself as a destination for “wholesome hedonism”” as well as “"Poshstock," catering to wealthy attendees with luxury amenities.”
Maxwell went to the same high school as Carney’s sister-in-law, and they were obviously social and looked very comfortable and even friendly at this event, even though Carney’s campaign staff claim they are not friends.
The photos and this incident were reported on by True North Wire, Western Standard, Toronto Sun and the National Post. And previously at the time of the event it appeared in a British publication The Daily Mail.
Recently the Daily Mail again re-published the photos connecting Ghislain Maxwell to the Mark Carney family.
Epstein’s address book reportedly had 7 numbers for Mark Carney’s sister-in-law, and two of them were named “diana,” which is the name of Mark Carney’s wife.
And Canada Proud put together this short video in March 2025 connecting all the does with Mark Carney, his wife Diana and sister, Ghislaine Maxwell and her former boyfriend and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.

Mark Carney's is China's Man
EXPLOSIVE: “It is good that the Chinese currency has [will] become the global reserve currency.”
Who is the REAL Mark Carney? | KR News Investigative Series Article 1: www.kraydensrightnews.com
Is Canada's Mark Carney the REAL Manchurian Candidate?
And does Mark Carney want to TANK the US Dollar? We take a look at two of his speeches where he says he does.
“Yet another ‘impartial’ British bureaucrat goes into left-wing politics. At @bankofengland, Carney backed ruinous Net Zero policies and money printing. The British state is completely rigged. A new Government in 2029 needs to dismantle this apparatus.”
That’s how former British Prime Minister Liz Truss summed up the selection on X — NOT ELECTION — of Mark Carney as the new Liberal Party of Canada leader and soon to be prime minister of Canada.
The more we learn about Mark Carney, the less we trust him or believe anything he says. The more that Carney tells Canadians that steel is no longer a relevant commodity in their lives, the greater the realization that this is a man who is utterly detached not only from ordinary Canadians but perhaps from reality itself.
Carney is a clear and present danger not only to Canada but President Donald Trump and the United States. He is clearly not working in the interests of Canada and our closest trading partner but is working in tandem with the globalists and communist China whom he has served much of his adult life.
Carney has not had anything resembling an ordinary life since he left high school and entered Harvard University and then onto Oxford. He has been systematically trained and groomed by the globalist cabal to insert himself into foreign governments, just the way the World Economic Forum (WEF) chief Klaus Schwab likes to describe this attack on democracy and national autonomy: “We penetrate ze cabinets”.
Carney has become leader of the Liberal Party of Canada through the back door, in a race that reeked of corruption and gross irregularity with 400,000 members joining and 2/3 of the ballots and two popular candidates kicked out of the race. He is expected to be sworn in as the prime minister of Canada on March 14, 2025. Justin Trudeau’s handlers, which are now Carney’s handlers have planted him in Canada on the border of the United States, which geographically is integrated into the US economy and military.
WATCH In His Own Words Mark Carney Explains His MASTER Plan | Stand on Guard CLIP (13 min)
“It is good that the Chinese currency has become the global reserve currency.”
-Mark Carney 2024, China Development Forum
Carney is not just symptomatic of globalist elites who tell you to eat bugs and own nothing and you’ll be happy – Carney is emblematic of these parasites who grow richer at your expense by telling you to abide by rules to live by that they joyfully ignore. As the chairman of Brookfield Assets Management, Carney enthusiastically invested in fossil fuels while running around the world as climate change goodwill ambassador for climate change and becoming a virtual spokesman for the net zero policies that are not only arbitrary fabrications but utterly toxic to Canada’s oil and gas industry. His company paid on average less than 5 percent corporate taxes and sheltered potentially hundreds of millions of dollars in Bermuda. You know, the old offshore shell game that works for hypocritical liberals who want you to pay more tax to fight climate change but know it’s all a sham and besides, it’s all about the profit margin for them and the shareholders.

WATCH British PM Liz Truss EXPOSES Mark Carney's Agenda: EXCLUSIVE Interview | Stand on Guard
But what is emerging now is a clear picture of Carney as such an enthusiastic advocate of communist China that he might be called a Manchurian candidate. See the film about how American GIs in Korea were brainwashed and subverted by Chinese agents and returned to the United States to work for China.
"China has made a huge contribution to the fight against climate change, not only in terms of its massive investment in clean technologies and exporting them to other countries, but also in actively developing the financial system needed for the green transition."
-Mark Carney
As the United Nations Special Envoy for Climate Change and co-chair of the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero (GFANZ), Carney actually expressed optimism that China – with all of its coal consumption and production of gas-guzzling automobiles – could be a world leader on green energy and net zero.
"China has made a huge contribution to the fight against climate change, not only in terms of its massive investment in clean technologies and exporting them to other countries, but also in actively developing the financial system needed for the green transition," he said.
The US House Judiciary Committee called GFANZ a “climate cartel” in one of two blistering 2024 reports, because of its attempts to impose a globalist net zero agenda on corporations around the world.
“The climate cartel has declared war on the American way of life. The climate cartel is waging a “Global World War” for net zero against disfavored American companies, including those in the fossil fuel, aviation and farming industries that allow Americans to drive, fly and eat.”
Not as well knows is that Mark Carney is wildly supportive of replacing the U.S. dollar as the world currency of choice with the Chinese yuan, or renminbi. On March 10, 2024 Carney said at a conference in China (21st Century Business Herald):
"I have been arguing for many years that it would be more beneficial for the global system if our reserve currency system could be richer and more accurately reflect the weight of the Chinese economy in the global economy, given the rise of the Chinese economy."
At the China Development Forum Carney went onto say:
“It is good that the Chinese currency has become the global reserve currency.”
He pointed out that to enhance the renminbi's status as a reserve currency, expanding its international use will be one of the most important factors.”
Carney has also said this before. At the Jackson Hole Economic Symposium in 2019, Carney advocated for both the Chinese currency and also a "new Synthetic Hegemonic Currency" (SHC), to be used to replace the U.S. dollar as the world’s reserve currency.
He gave this speech during President Donald J. Trump’s first presidency, when tariffs had been applied to China, and Trump’s relationship was rocky with the Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, who had speculated about an economic recession.
The more that Carney tells Canadians that steel is no longer a relevant commodity in their lives, the greater the realization that this is a man who is utterly detached not only from ordinary Canadians but perhaps from reality itself.
Carney’s Jackson Hole speech advocated for central banks to collaborate and replace the U.S. dollar to decrease its “domineering influence” on trade around the world.
In his speech, Carney expressed concerns about the booming United States’ economy, “Now that the United States’ economy is doing better than most, pushing the dollar higher, smaller countries are suffering more than they should. Trump’s tariffs on imports from China and elsewhere are adding to the dollar’s strength as well, making matters even worse.”
“And the most likely candidate for true reserve currency status, the Renminbi (RMB), has a long way to go before it is ready to assume the mantle. The initial building blocks are there. Already, China is the world’s leading trading nation, overtaking the US at the start of this decade. And the Renminbi is now more common than sterling in oil future benchmarks, despite having no share in the market prior to 2018.”
“As a consequence, it is an open question whether such a new Synthetic Hegemonic Currency (SHC) would be best provided by the public sector, perhaps through a network of central bank digital currencies. Even if the initial variants of the idea prove wanting, the concept is intriguing. It is worth considering how an SHC in the IMFS could support better global outcomes, given the scale of the challenges of the current IMFS and the risks in transition to a new hegemonic reserve currency like the Renminbi,” Carney continued.
“An SHC could dampen the domineering influence of the US dollar on global trade. If the share of trade invoiced in SHC were to rise, shocks in the US would have less potent spillovers through exchange rates, and trade would become less synchronized across countries. By the same token, global trade would become more sensitive to changes in conditions in the countries of the other currencies in the basket backing the SHC. The dollar’s influence on global financial conditions could similarly decline if a financial architecture developed around the new SHC and it displaced the dollar’s dominance in credit markets.”
This speech brought joy and a great deal of excitement to globalist banker elites and those suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS). It was picked up in the LA Times and in this economic journal called the Global Treasurer.
Carney is a clear and present danger not only to Canada but President Donald Trump and the United States. He is clearly not working in the interests of Canada and our closest trading partner but is working in tandem with the globalists and communist China whom he has served much of his adult life.
But as we have pointed out in previous posts on this page (KR News: Mark Carney Deep Dive), Carney cites two noted communists, Karl Marx and Vladimir Lenin as two of his more profound influencers.
Let’s make Mark Carney the shortest serving prime minister in Canadian history.
