Have you been on the Ethics Commissioner site to read the current disclosures and get a handle on what they entail? Read the regulations around what a screen actually is?
I'll happily eat my words if the Canadian public gets access to the full depth of these screens and are made aware of what assets Canrey has built coming into this job.

My money is on one reason or another why the public doesn't need to know.

Are your expectations for access based on an informed understanding of what is required under the Conflict of Interest Act and Conflict of Interest Code for Members of the House of Commons, and in line with current practice, or are they bespoke to Mark Carney?
 
Prediction - "Best ethics commission finds no conflict of interest issues with Carney".

Which given that one has already been publicly identified and reported on, with the Ethics Commissioner in the process of putting active screening measures in place- is a pretty stupid prediction.
 
A few days ago the story about Carney looking forward to talking to Trump came out and his base loved it. He's not wasting any time and behaving like a true world leader should. Trump will talk to Carney immediately if he has any brain cells. This, ladies and gentlemen, is what a leader looks like!

Then a story comes out, Carney is in no rush to talk to Trump. "THIS!". Carney is putting Trump in his place, Carney is showing the world how strong Canada is. We don't need the US. More world leaders should be like Carney.

It's like watching the hysteria from 2015 all over again.

Carney isn't going to defund the CBC.

Because Trudeau was so absolutely terrible, at the end it got impossible for the media to overtly support him and maintain any fraction of credibility. Enter the new guy and that metric has now reversed.

So you are correct. This will be the coronation of 2015 again with their sugar daddy.
 
Has Carney revealed the rest of HIS policy yet? (yes I know it's still early).

I really hope he rips apart Trudueas hard left leaning legacy of woke politics.
I wish he would but doubt that will happen…at least until after the election. But even then he doesn’t seem like the kind to engage in divisive speeches. If anything he would probably work subtly to dismantle some of the Woke policies. Just not sure how to read him yet. Seems to hold his cards very close to his chest.

Here's a (tiny) start (given Carney's "not-officially-but-sorta-kinda interim" status): point out who's minister of women's issues, gender equality, diversity, inclusion, heritage or multiculturalism in Carney's first cabinet?
Also archived here in case original link doesn't work.
Transparency is about answering questions asked and providing reasonable access. The latter doesn't necessitate paying to make them part of the baggage train.
True, but reporters/media outlets have paid for their ride in the past. Also, when it comes to access, we'll see who they let in - or not - at the on-site events.

Nope. I trust that act as far as I can throw a cybertruck.

I want Canadians to know what kind of shit this guy has been up to and how he made millions of dollars. Connections to Russia? China? India?

Did the company he work for dodge paying millions of dollars worth of taxes?

I don't know about you but I'm tired of politicians taking advantage of Canadians. Some Canadians may want another 10 years of games, not me.

His popularity has been largely due to his perceived ability to handle Trump negotiations and tariffs, despite never having spoken to the President. All Carney needs to do is talk about what he's good at - word salads regarding tariffs and the economy. The clapping seals of central and eastern Canada will eat it up because Carney is a different face on the same tired, old LPC.

Tying Carney to anything Brookfield did is trying to throw shit at the wall at hoping something sticks, he was one of 14 members of the board, and while any nefarious does potentially have responsibility to the board, the CPC is trying to frame everything the company did has him alone.

Integrity, trust, and honesty.

He was one of 14 members of a board of a corporation with over $900 Billion dollars USD in assets under management.

The same company that appears to have dodged billions of dollars in taxes.

Whether he (potentially) acted alone or in lockstep with other big wigs, Canadians deserve to know any dirty laundry before an election.

Not to mention that exquisite irony of Conservatives hanging their hat on a report from a 6 person, union funded, partisan advocacy group whos mantra is essentially "Corporations are bad and profits the fruit of the devil"

Like he's probably a cult member too?

Well, a Laurentian elite cult member at any rate ;)

And we Liberals elected THE old, global banker, rich, white guy as our leader.

I tell you the place is going upside down.

At this point if the Liberals came out in support of 2A legislation for Canadians I am convinced the CPC would fight against it.

That's what happens when the CPC tells the PC's to go piss up a rope if they don't like what the Reformer with a MAGA chief of staff are doing, the LPC pivots to the unoccupied middle, and the CPC is left throwing spaghetti at the wall.

Coincidence?

No. I bet they're tied into the Missouri Kempers as well. The plot thickens.

As someone who voted Reform all through the 90’s and 00’s, (PCs were non-existent west of Manitoba after 1993) I’ll just say that Maple MAGA is unrecognizable to me and the current crop has me wondering if I should spoil my ballot or vote for them in spite of them.
