Canadians keep asking the wrong question about Mark Carney. They keep asking whether he is a good politician.That is like asking whether a locksmith is a good interior decorator.
Carney is not here to govern. He is here to re-engineer the operating system of the country while the Liberal Party provides the helpful stage props and applause track. And judging by how little scrutiny this government receives, the audience seems perfectly content to clap at whatever is placed in front of them, provided it comes with soothing words like “stability,” “resilience,” and “the experts agree.
”The problem is not that Mark Carney is incompetent.The problem is that he is extremely competent at something Canadians never actually consented to.The Technocrat’s Trick:Most politicians need legislation to impose their will.Technocrats do not.Technocrats redesign the machinery so that the outcome becomes inevitable. No messy debate. No inconvenient voters. No public reckoning. Just “the framework,” “the model,” “the standard,” and eventually the quiet conclusion that there is “no alternative.
”And this is precisely the world Mark Carney comes from.He did not rise through grassroots politics or party service. He rose through central banks, global finance institutions, and elite climate-finance bodies that speak fluent acronym and consider democracy an optional inconvenience. The man does not campaign. He architects.While Canadians were busy arguing about slogans and selfies, Carney was helping wire the global financial system so that climate policy would be enforced through capital markets, lending rules, disclosure regimes, and regulatory pressure. Translation for non-Liberal Party members: the real power is not in Parliament anymore. It is in the plumbing.Once that plumbing is installed, governments do not need to “ban” anything. They simply make certain activities impossible to finance, impossible to insure, impossible to justify on paper. Then the Liberal Party shows up at the microphone and explains, very sadly, that the system requires sacrifice, your sacrifice, and please stop asking questions because the experts have spoken.
The Conflict No One Wants to Touch: After helping build the global transition-finance machine, Carney stepped directly into a senior role at Brookfield, one of the largest beneficiaries of the very transition strategies he championed. Then he became Prime Minister.If that does not make Liberal Party communications directors break out in hives, they might want to check their pulse.This is not about alleging crimes. This is about incentives.When a person designs the rules of the game, then runs a major player inside that game, then takes control of the referee’s booth, Canadians are entitled to ask whether public policy is being written for public benefit or portfolio performance.Instead, the Liberal Party waves its favorite prop, the one labeled “conspiracy theorist,” and hopes no one notices that their Prime Minister’s career path looks less like public service and more like a perfectly closed loop.
The Rhetoric of Soft Tyranny: Listen to Carney speak and you will hear the same words, again and again.Risk.Stability.Resilience.Transition.Competitiveness.Investor certainty.These words are not neutral. They are governance tools. They shift politics from “What do Canadians want?” to “What does the system require?”Once you accept that framing, disagreement becomes irresponsible. Dissent becomes dangerous. Objections become unscientific. And the Liberal Party is very happy to stand behind that shield, nod gravely, and inform Canadians that their suffering is simply the price of being on the right side of history.The beauty of technocratic power is that it does not look like power. It looks like inevitability. And inevitability is the favorite costume of authoritarian thinking.
The Democratic Deficit No One Voted For: Canadians were sold a calm, competent adult in the room.What they got was an unelected system engineer quietly converting moral claims into financial constraints.This is not leadership.It is non-consensual governance.Parliament is not debating these structural transformations in any meaningful way. Canadians are not being asked whether they accept the economic costs, the affordability consequences, the industry damage, the regional fallout, or the long-term trade implications. They are simply being informed that the models demand obedience.And the Liberal Party, faithful as ever, beams proudly while lecturing citizens about responsibility and #sacrifice from the comfort of power they never actually earned.
The Op-Ed That Should Have Been Written: Mark Carney is not the saviour the Liberals pretend he is.He is the embodiment of a governing class that believes the public’s role is to comply, pay, and remain politely confused.Canadians are not being governed.They are being managed.The tragedy is not that @MarkJCarney is a technocrat. The tragedy is that the Liberal Party is perfectly happy to hand him the country and then scold the public for noticing. If Canadians want a future where choices are still made by voters instead of algorithms and advisory panels, they are going to have to stop applauding this performance and start asking the one question that truly terrifies technocrats and their obedient political enablers: Who exactly decided this for us?Because it was not the voters. And the longer the #Liberal Party pretends otherwise, the more obvious the con becomes.
