Mark Carney’s rise to power raises questions about his ability to govern differently from Trudeau and the extent of foreign influence on Canadian policies.

Summary

As Canada prepares for a leadership change with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau poised to step down and Mark Carney emerging as his likely successor, the key question is whether Carney will govern differently from the unpopular Trudeau. Carney’s camp claims he will, particularly on issues like carbon reduction and immigration, which have alienated many Canadians.

However, a closer look at Carney’s elite network reveals a web of global influencers deeply connected to the World Economic Forum and China’s trade and finance arms, such as the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB). This network includes former Canadian ambassador to China, Dominic Barton, and Trudeau campaign backers Mark Wiseman and Gerald Butts, as well as AIIB’s Jin Liqun, reportedly a senior Chinese Communist Party operative.

For Canadian voters, understanding this plutocratic web is crucial as it offers insight into the forces shaping Canada’s climate, trade, and social policies. The World Economic Forum, while criticized for undemocratic policymaking, has strong ties to Beijing’s financial arms and key figures in Carney’s orbit, suggesting a pattern of shared interests that may drive Canadian governance under Carney.
