Mark Carney is making Canada’s case abroad, but what are Canadians hearing at home? Matt Gurney makes the case for why that gap matters, even while the prime minister enjoys strong support. If you’re watching everyday costs rise, what would you want him to explain directly?
An interview with an American newspaper can reach the people Carney hopes to influence outside Canada. Gurney understands the strategy. He also sees a risk in relying on it while relationships with Canadian journalists and voters receive less attention.
Big international decisions may define a government, but so can the smaller things people live with every day. Gurney sees the government handling some major files well. What does he think could undo that work when public patience changes?
