Poilievre, Singh criticize Carney​

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre also spoke on Parliament Hill Monday afternoon.

The federal Conservatives started sharpening their attack lines about the new Liberal leader weeks before he was elected, as polls started to show the official opposition’s wide lead start to narrow upon Trudeau’s resignation and U.S. President Donald Trump’s inauguration.

This effort has seen Poilievre’s party roll out advertising and issue multiple statements and fundraising emails questioning Carney’s economic aptitude, his record as a Trudeau adviser, and his personal ethical disclosures.

“He’s just like Justin, and he’s more of the same,” Poilievre said. “We have the same Liberal MPs, the same Liberal advisers… who will produce the same Liberal results.”

The Conservative leader faced a series of questions from reporters about his experience, polling suggesting more Canadians trust Carney to handle Trump, and whether he’d asked his caucus and candidates to not wear “MAGA” [Make America Great Again] merchandise.

“My instruction is that we should put Canada first,” Poilievre said in response. “I’ve also made it clear to my members of Parliament that we should favour bringing jobs back to Canada, not move them to the United States of America, as Mark Carney did when he had the chance.”

This was a reference to Carney’s involvement in a decision to move the headquarters of an asset firm he chaired from Toronto to New York, around the time Trump started threatening tariffs. Carney’s campaign has said “Canadian operations were not impacted.”

Asked to comment on Poilievre’s comments about the candidate he enthusiastically backed in the leadership race, Industry Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne said: “Do you think that calling people names is going to make a difference? I mean that’s the kind of politics Canadians don’t want to see.”

The federal New Democrats also quickly sought to frame Carney. In a new ad called “red flags,” a voice that’s not NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh’s says the new Liberal leader is focused on “making the rich richer.”
